Colin Campbell
I love the freedom of being able to share a story or a message without the concern of limitations that are sometimes imposed by other forms of media. Television and film are two examples of story telling that require large budgets to produce and a great deal of effort to distribute. Writing however is a much simpler way of sharing a story or message. All you need is a pen and a piece of paper. Words are free, both figuratively and in the larger sense. A good writer can make us think, laugh, and become inspired. A good book can temporarily take us out of our normal routine and transport us to new places and even different times to meet new people. It is this process of story telling, and the personal interpretation and emotion generated, that is the best thing about being a writer.
