They say the pen is mightier than the sword,
But it’s not just about wielding it.
It’s about the words you choose,
The stories you weave,
The emotions you pour onto the page.

You don’t need fancy words,
Or complex sentences that twist and turn.
It’s about being real,
About being you.
Your voice, your truth,
That’s what makes you good.

A good writer listens first,
To the world around, to the voices within.
They observe the small details,
A child’s laugh, the rustle of leaves,
The way the sun hits the pavement...
