Become a good writer

i start writing a lot of books, but i usually don’t get very far. i think i might finish THE LION’S EMERALD, YARN OF A TALE, AKORIK WARHUNT, and BEINIR’S* FRIEND. they’re on the computer and i work on them in the car when i don’t have internet. the thing is, they totally stink. i need to become a better writer because now i do speech class (yuk) and have to write speeches. it not only takes me like, three weeks, but they stink as bad as my short stories. thats why i need to be a better writer.

• Beinir is the viking name for Benjamin

I feel that the written word is one of the most important expressions of thought. It’s not like i want to be published or anything like that, I just want to be able to voice my opinions well enough for people to take them seriously. Ok, maybe i’d write one book for fun.
