"Write what you know"
- my English teacher 2k17

No. Fuck you,

If people wrote what they knew, where would we be now? We'd have no Harry Potter, hardly any of the books that have shaped people's lives. We'd have half, probably less classics that English teachers cherish so much, and we'd have boring books about boring people with boring lives who do boring things, because guess what? If we wrote what we knew, we would be writing stories about staying up till midnight finishing homework, because that's what we know.

Goodbye to Harry Potter, goodbye to Percy Jackson, goodbye to The Fault in Our Stars, goodbye to Animal Farm, goodbye to Of Mice and Men, goodbye to Lord of the Flies, goodbye to Lord of the Rings, goodbye to The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.
