seemingly basic act of writing is useful in more ways that one. Writing is how the United States started the revolution against England, people are transported through time and space to Middle Earth, and it allows for people to learn the horrors of the Holocaust through the eyes of a young girl. All of these things are made possible through writing. Writing is education, a job, a future.
