I want to tell you a little bit about why writing, and a writer, is important. First of all writing is the primary basis of your work and learning and that is what your intellect will be pertly judged by and that is greatly important to college proffesors because they use that uinformation to see if you qualify and are fit to go to that college or not. Also one very important reason that writing is important is because writing expresses who you are, on the inside and the outside, and it helps people learn about your personality and what kind of person you are and that is what friends look for before they vchoose their friends because they want a friend that cares for them and will stand up for them and have their back. Also writing makes your thinking visible whicyh is rseally important in work and school because then your teachers and other important people/figures can see your point of view and opinion and can think like you do and see out of your perspective. Another very good reason about why writing is important is because writing helps other people give you feedback because, like I said before, writing makes your thinking visible and so after reading your writing and looking at the world through your perspective they can give you their opinion and what they think and help you make your writing better.
