Short description:
With the development of the Internet, every second person considers himself a writer. People write blogs, live magazines, create websites, write texts for them, communicate in forums and dream that their records will still be liked by someone. A writer is a person who creates a meaningful text (work) and earns a living from it. That is, it is not enough just to write the text, put it in a box or place it on your blog. Writers have a certain circle of readers, this is their main or one of the main activities.
History of the profession:
The process of creating written texts has changed. In ancient times, records were left on the walls, stones, and then the letters were drawn out with a feather on parchment. At the beginning of the 20th century, writers switched from the usual way of capturing their thoughts by hand to the more modern – typing. Today, these noisy cars replaced computers. It is difficult to say who stands at the origins of this profession, because history can be traced only by who became one of the creators. The ancient scientific treatise of Hesiod, Homer’s Iliad, many artistic, journalistic and philosophical works are our heritage inherited from our ancestors. …
The social importance of the profession in society: Writers play a huge role in educating the masses. It is difficult to imagine how people would replenish vocabulary, learn to write and speak correctly, if not for the classics of literature. If fiction is just a pleasant pastime at leisure reading, then scientific and philosophical works, technical instructions, observations and recommendations of doctors, school textbooks – all this makes people think, monitor their body, eat right and educate their children for good fairy tales.
The mass and uniqueness of the profession:
The writer must have a humanitarian mindset and a developed imagination. It is impossible to invent a work of art without bright imagination. He must know the rules of grammar, avoid syntactic errors and, most importantly, be able to give an ordinary word a poetic color or emotion with the help of synonyms, associations, and corporate identity. If we are talking about the writer of detectives, then there must be a hard syllable, an emphasis on facts and plot, a la action movie.
Risks of the profession:
The representatives of this profession are not quite ordinary people. They are bright, shocking, emotional, often choleric. That is, they do not know how to create in the normal state. Writers who cannot but write themselves are looking unconsciously for an object that will cause them, for example, moral pain, and then they sit down at a desk. It may also leave the Muse, and then you will not squeeze the lines out of yourself, but the public is waiting. If you do not go to extremes, then this is a great way of self–expression and you can go down in history, become a famous world writer.
