I love to read and write because writing is special. An art. Something many take for granted, and few take heed of. I love to write because it's a way to bring life to the ideas we have that may otherwise go unrecognized. Writing is a way to create entire worlds and Universes separate of ours, and sometimes more real than ours in the eye of the reader. The reader is like a ship traveling through space with all of the countless planets created by the authors, waiting to stumble upon one that is particularly interesting and worth a visit.
