You don't become a writer; you are a writer.

Just because I'm writing right now doesn't mean I'm making a living off it.

the fuck does money have to do with it? People write for themselves, otherwise they're just used car salesmen.

You don't become a retard; you are a retard.


You're right, this does seem to work.

I agree. Thank God I'm not a retard...

No.

Reading and writing are not innate, you can't write a line until they mop the amniotic fluid out of your eyes.

You can't become a Crip, you're born a Crip.

Shut the fuck up, OP. No one besides idiot Christians believes in that stupid destiny shit.

I don't. I write when I want to get a point across on the internet.

A 'writer' takes the practice much more seriously, always working on a story/theory or some shit.

I'm not a believer in any way. Or I might be a believer that doesn't believe in anything, depending on the way you see it...

Writers write so readers can read.

no, I agree, even if that wasn't the point of my thread...but I do agree. Some poeple were made to write, and some were made to read

>>540268
I think what OP means isn't that you're literate at birth, I think OP means that writing is a calling or something in your soul or just a certain artistic vision that you can't learn. You either have it or you don't and if you don't you can't ever change yourself to be that way.

I'm well aware of what the OP meant, but I didn't think a proper rebuttal was necessary because it's a fairly ignorant and baseless statement.

>> No.540318

Well, you need to read alot and experience alot in order to become a great writer, but that in turn has to stem from some inane talent, so YEAH BRO 10/10
