The Writer
"If you
don't have time to read, you don't have the time (or the tools) to write.
Simple as that."

The Writer’s Motive and Motivation
I wish to preface my
presentation with a reference to George Orwell. Of course, George Orwell was
not his real name, but rather a pen name. Eric Arthur Blair (25 June 1903 – 21 January 1950), was an English
novelist, essayist, journalist and critic. His work is marked by lucid prose,
awareness of social injustice, opposition to totalitarianism, and commitment to
democratic socialism. Commonly ranked as one of the most influential English
writers of the 20th century, and as one of the most important chroniclers of
English culture of his generation, Orwell wrote literary criticism, poetry,
fiction, and polemical journalism.
