Am I A Writer?

When I hear the writer I usually think of someone who writes books, novels, that sort of thing. In that way, no I am not a writer. But to me, when it comes to music than yes I am most definitely a writer. Music is my passion and always will be. I am constantly playing my guitar and "writing" guitar parts or finishing writing a song I had written a while ago. Almost any part of the writing process for a song you will find me doing.

I think in a certain way we are all writers, maybe not in the way that most people think. Like I said earlier, when someone hears the term writer, they automatically think of an author. I try to stay away from this way of thinking. I write music, maybe not on paper with a pen or maybe not on the computer with my keyboard writing out each note but its there in my head. I do sometimes use a tablature program to write out a guitar part so that I won't forget it and it'll be there when I went to come back to it.

So do I call myself a writer? Yes I do.
