The World In Writing

Writing has always fascinated me, the reason is that we all have access to the same amount of words and after all there are only so many words. Yet there are so many different combinations to put all these words into that we all have the same opportunity to create a great Story or Poem.

If we produce our own work then how do we know if it is worthy of the public to read. Up until recently it has always been down to some body within a Company of Publishers that decides whether you work will see the light of day. This is what can be so soul destroying for anyone that writes.

In my opinion this is all wrong, there are probably great Books or Poems etc.. that have not seen the light of day because one or two people within a Publishing Company decided that they were not good enough.

The work of many individuals with different ideas have never been recieved by the many different people with their different tastes is something that should have changed long ago.

There can be much more material avialable for the public to enjoy thanks to the Internet. Because if you write it, you can Publish it and not have to rely on anyone else’s opinion. You can get your work to the world.

If I write a Story or Poem then I would like the choice of deciding if I want others to read it. I have that choice and my work can be seen on the Internet. You never know you might like it, but I have the choice to let you read it and you have the choice to then read it or not. The point is the choice.

I think more people should use this great resource as a platform for their own creativity and make more material available for the world to enjoy. Let the world choose not the Publishers.
