A dictionary would explain; writer: person who writes something. To me, this explanation makes no sense and if this meaning were universally accepted, everyone in this world would be all writers.
Having worked as a legal and political assistant to a Member of Parliament, expert author for ezine, freelance writer for Search newspaper, volunteer local newspapers’ columnist, translator for Cambodia’s most celebrated translation juristic person and migration form filler, and media liaison, writer does have more senses: a sense that would provoke other inspirations to those curious to make publications and to be a writer.
Writer, in my personal opinion, is one who is always curious to unveil secrets to the world. The word “secrets” in this context, does not mean intelligence like that of CIA or Scotland yard, but it just mean any information; childish, simple, serious, educational, religious, dangerous, truthful, that the writer thinks a number of people do not know. Moreover, revealing the secret does not totally mean to thoroughly cover detail of the information that the writer wants to share, but it may be writer’s tactics to make the reader more informational curious; urging to know more.
Writer must have no secret even in himself. To be a true writer, he or she has to writer anything come across the sight. So does it just mean writing anything? No, any writing serve one or more purposes. Wring about artifact would mean to footprint the historical fact, biographical writing would intend to inspire perspiration, political writing would serve diplomatic purposes and legal writing would mean to ascertain social justice. Shockingly, in our control age, some writing would inspire suicide bombings; a purpose that eliminate the originality.
The final meaning of being a writer is “not for individual purpose.” Writer’s opinion tends to reach a huge number of readers, so the purpose is to make that huge number of people feel mentally or materialistically beneficial as reading a writer’s writing. Of course, since human society is too vast, it is really hard for writer to be called “a true writer”, but it is the writer’s obligation to break this human wall; Ronald Regand did break concrete Berlin wall, we, the writer, is now time to break abstract global wall.
