-Mary Pipher in her book, Writing to Change the World-
This idea of writing to change the world intrigues me. Writing has done a lot of good and a lot of damage to the world. Books like Uncle Tom's Cabin and The Diary of Anne Frank as well as thing like news articles and media have made a huge impact on those who have read them for the most part.
I wish to someday write in a way that speaks to people. A way that not only holds them in place wanting to read more, but a way that causes them to think in a new way or take action that they never would have before or even just change the way they live because they have seen a new light on an old subject.
Hopefully, my writing is somewhat interesting now haha, since I do have some people that read this stuff. However, I will continue to strive to make what I write more connect-able to the world or just the little world that I happen to speak to now :)
