Theory #3

Why do writers write? What is their purpose for writing? Do they have a purpose at all? Are they just born that way? Is it influenced by the people around them? Does it really have to do with how they were raised and their childhood?

See I personally think writers are meant to be writers. Just like Lebron James is meant to be a basketball player. Like Brett Favre was meant to be a football player. Like the members in Nickleback were meant to be together to entertain the world with music. I believe that writers are meant to be what they are and born to do what they do.

The main purposes of a writer is to persuade, to entertain, or to inform-yes. But, I as a writer, personally, I have my own subject. To change. My main purpose is to change. And I think that this is the subject of all writers. Just the subject, now their sub-subject is obviously going to be more spread out and specific. My dream has been to change the world... and ever since I was little writing is how I first discovered I could do that. I discovered people loved to listen to what I had to say. So, why do writers write? Some for fame and fortune-yes. But honestly, ever TRUE writer known, probably writes to change. Even letters to the editor are meant to chang, by expression opnionated views. I think every writer has to have a purpose. Even if you're writing an article on the 'New Moon' movie coming out... they have a purpose; to inform...but also to make sure people get what they need. In that case their daily dosege of 'Twilight.' I can summarize all writing into two subjects, "Real Writing," and, "Selfish Writing." In the "Real Writing" is the main subject. People write to change; to change rumors, to change opinions, to change the world. I mean...why am I writing? To change opinions. There's my opinion on that specific part.

I believe we writers could be possibly be born that way. Is there a way we can prove that?-kind of. If we have famous writers or poets in our family, or better yet people who liked to take notes or just speak inspirationally. We could've been born that way.
But, people like me, who have no history, ancestory-wise, to the writing subject...does that mean we suck at writing? No. That means that we could've just been born that way. Possibly.

I believe writing could be very well influenced by the people around you. If people read to you when you were little or they loved telling you stories... or better yet they just told you funny family stories. One little story could have influenced your influential choice.
That's kind of one the subject of if it could have something to do with how you were raised.

Are my theories correct?
I don't know, maybe...
