Writer – /ˈrʌɪtə/ – a person who has written something or who writes in a particular way.
The world needs more writers.
In their article ‘WHY WRITING IS SO IMPORTANT’, Brandon Gustafson Linda Tran & Jocelyn Buck explored the subject of writing and its importance to society. A key point they made goes thus:
The importance of writing stems from the fact that writing is the primary basis upon which communication, history, record keeping, and art is begun…The words you use can show who you are as a person, the things writing has done in our lives and the world is profound. I cannot imagine a life that didn’t involve writing.
WHY WRITING IS SO IMPORTANT
WRITE.
If you ask me, everyone should write. Why? Everyone has a story (or stories) – idea, perspective, experience, philosophies, and aspirations – which other people will love to hear/read.
Going by Wikipedia’s definition that ‘a writer is a person who uses written words in various styles and techniques to communicate their ideas’, one can say that writers are expressing ideas and, by extension, those who do not write are hoarding/hiding their ideas?
Kukogho Iruesiri Samson, says, “You owe the world at least one book before you die because, after death, everything you know is lost forever” unless you have written them down.
That idea you have, put it down on paper, research it and make it a body of work that others than learn from.
