Why I'm a Writer


Walter Dean Myers 'Why I'm A Writer'

"We each are born into a history.  We have a mother and a father; we have certain physical features and are born in a specific place.  As writers, we get to invent different histories for our characters.  To do this skillfully, we must seek to more deeply understand our own individual histories and their effect on us." 

Just Write, Here's How by Walter Dean Myers (p. 7)
