No, I don't call myself a writer.
To consider yourself a writer is pretty tough to determine. What qualifies someone as a writer as opposed to someone who isn't? We all write at one time or another. Since no definition of a writer is given, I'll supply my own. I consider a writer to be someone that has something to say- whether that be a point or an opinion. The only times I truly write are for school, and that is because I have to. Its a requirement. Sure, I can piece together sentences and make them sound just jolly and fun. But to consider myself a writer? No. Frost was a writer. The Beatles were writers. I'd like to consider myself a writer one day. But until I feel I have something worth saying, or say what I really would like to, I will remain a writing drone, with not too much to say.
