#32: Typewriter

       The familiar "click-clack" ing of the keys on the typewriter could be heard in the attic. Each keystroke adding another element to the story unfolding on the paper. Each series of keystrokes created a stair step towards the doorway of an unfinished adventure. As the thought inside the writer's mind turned itself into transferrable words on paper, a story is born.  The "click-clack" ing sound not only marked the birth of a story and adventure to be shared with all, but also signifies the beauty and elegance of such a writing utensil. Some were born to speak some to listen, some to teach, and others to learn. But some were born to do something bold and daring and totally original-they were born to write. There are those who can write and those who were born to write. The difference is that while some have to think about writing, for those who were born to write, it comes as easy as breathing. It is an art that comes naturally, as if they breathe in words and exhale stories and novels ready for publication.
