Allow me to re-introduce myself. My name is Jeffrey "Smock Salute" Lescouflair and I AM A WRITER! I consider myself a young, talented member of the Writing Community. I am a novice and have utilized the art as a hobby for about a little more than two years. Although, I am an unofficial member in some regards on a professional level, with no awards, royalties, nor book deals, doesn’t make me less of a writer and participant than anyone else. What makes it “remarkable” is its ever-grandiose impact on history, politics, sociology, science, media, etc. Basically, it’s a universal language that guides the world just like speaking many of the foreign languages.
I am not too well with history, but theoretically, I would assume the first writing tool was a pointed edged rock that etched the surface of an earthly slab. And voila! The existence of the first letter or word is birthed! Then, it evolved into something more, sentences, paragraphs, and stories. Cultures were formed through oral and written languages associated within specific communities to eventually spread nationally and internationally. Today, it is everywhere, inside books, newspapers, and the world-wide-web.
The single, significant quality that makes it “remarkable” is the effect on the social media, grand and personal level. I believe everyone is a writer in some shape or form. Some are more talented than most. And some don’t have interest in it at all, but writers nonetheless. We all became writers when we first wrote our first alphabet in elementary school. As we grew older, we had no choice but to write essays for classes. Everyone inscribes subjective/objective feelings and emotions on a subject matter, personal or not. It is aesthetics of art, beautifully transcribed vicariously from ink to paper, fingerprints to text. It’s a potent source of all information, and importantly, a release therapy of the mind, body and soul. It can bring people together through books that create a relationship between the author and the reader. The omniscience and omnipotence of words resonate through time and space, filtered to the senses. Overall, it has limitless boundaries on the effects of people’s lives. People can understand and relate to others by which creates growth amongst each other.
The Writing Community exists within all of us. We are all unofficial members. All it takes is a simple engagement of the writer and the pen to create a marriage that is very sweet!
