  WE THE WRITER... 

  It's amazing what new things we can create with our writing. No really the term creative writing was no coincidence from the time of its conception till now. More than ever we are the ones who have chosen to embrace this art. 
 Taking our que from great men like William Shakespeare, John Pepper Clarke, C.S Lewis, Chinua Achebe and so many more we have been able to create world's from words.
Yes that's right whole new world's, like where little creatures fly, where wardrobes are doors to new places, where animals speak and nature has a mind of its own. 
We have been able to paint colorful pictures with imagination, paintings scribbled down in fine calligraphy waiting to burst out on the canvas of creative minds. These are a breed of people who love to draw, to show you how much of a sketch you can actually read about. Like fine art writing has become a bubbling cauldron of emotions. Stories lived and told from other eyes, however you put it, one or two, three and even the world can relate to it. 
  We are playful with what we do... describing laughter with every single intricacy that it entails. We will tell, write, write and tell and even when you look at it closely you would realise that these words we write are more than tales. 
Bringing to life what we all enjoyed as children, keenly huddled together under the bright moon light as we listend to grand pa... Immortalising these stories so that our other generations can enjoy them, we are 'The Writer'. 
We dare to pick the pen when no one else would. Letting ink flow just so we can create what no one else could... in times of despair, hurt, utter joy or gladness, fatal pain or sadness, we convert weakness into strengths that the world can look upon and get hope from. Making sure that every mood swing gave birth to a good thing that added one more bright color to our world now splattered with shades of gray, we bring freedom.
 The pen, they say is mightier than the sword so we will write without saying a word, introverted in those moments just so that every single thing that you are thinking and not saying we can bring to life because the writer is the Voice.   
No longer stereotyped to a particular style of doing things, making sure that the words are distinct and straight so that we can get an A+ from the oldies No! We will carve out our own nitch because we are young, we will pun, exaggerate, be futuristic, drag forward the past, we would rhyme, play with syllables, abuse poetic license and inter mingle the languages all to make sure that you understand it exactly how we dream it. 
 We bear the clay, in blue, black, red, yellow green, be it the sun, moon, stars, little babies or beautiful creatures all around the world. From pets to wild animals, beasts of burden to aquatic life, including the tiny little organisms that are barely visible to the eyes, we would paste them and mould them out into sculptures you can understand because we are creators. 
 Written melodies, extracting beauty from symphony, elaborating every hand and foot movement, enhancing body language with eloquence and clarity we will portray keys and play out notes, turning strings into letters because we can, because even in writing we can make music. 
 We are unique we are different and unlike what they said and what they were thinking we are not out of our minds, neither are we insane. Yes we may be loosing touch with reality because we have chosen to write outside the box. But hey, there's nothing wrong with that, I mean that's okay right? Because this famously tagged 'X' generation is proving to be the 'Next'. Pioneers of something big, bigger than even ourselves. We are great. Not like the symbol No! We are not your conventional kind of great we are indeed great... a revolution from what the status quo ever termed as great, we surpass everything that exists we are immortal and because we exist in a world that cannot be defined we are the future. 
       The future you've always talked about.
