A lot of people wish to be writers some day. They mean that they hope to write stories or books, even novels which many persons will read. But they should know it's impossible that everyone can be a writer. They should understand that they will need to be good readers and to read much in order to be good writers.

Nearly all the great writers read a lot before they started to go to school. And they have kept reading for hours every day since they became good readers. Instead of watching TV in the evening, they spend much of their spare(空闲) time in reading books.

If you are a good reader, you don't need to spend so long doing the reading homework after school. Then you can read other books for fun. As you read so well, you keep looking for more books.

While making up your mind to become a good writer, you had better say to yourself, "I must read more and more if I really want to become a good writer. "

A lot of people like reading, why? Words play magic. They can create pictures in our mind; they’re can help us express our feelings that we have been trying to hide, and like a key, words can open up locked hearts and free our souls that have been kept deep inside.

When different people are reading the same passage, for example, about a scene(情景) which shows a palace at midnight, the words they read are the same, yet if they are asked to point out what the scene is like in their mind, each person will have the pictures drawn differently. How they draw their palace according to their nature appears to be view on how they can see things.

Although human minds are different, I do believe that somehow(以某种方法) we have all come across mutual feelings. Stories that touch（触动） us, stressed that terrify us, stories that set us free---- we all have tasted the pain, the fear, the freedom because we all have feelings. I believe all of us have personalities within personalities, and by that I mean people who seem to be strong are not always that strong, they are easily hurt on the inside.

Good writers, who can smartly use the right words in their writings, will easily break through the shell(壳) of one’s personality within. Great writers, who can use only words to move the personality within, will understand one’s weakness. Excellent writers, who can use the perfect words to aim at the personality within, will open up one’s heart---- even rewrite his or her life.

I want to be an excellent writer because when I read, I feel like home. Home is where my books are. When I feel scared, I read, and it becomes my candles. When I feel sad, I read, it becomes my cover. When I feel lonely, I read, and it becomes my company.

Home is where we leave the sadness, fear and stress behind, where we only allow happiness to stay. I want to be a writer who brings such feeling to everyone to bring them home with my words.

Reading is all that I need. Whenever I read, I just feel the magic that words create, leaving everything behind.
