The profession of writing

A method in actions, has followers who test from life and the human condition hidden within it, so they live again mentally through writing just as they lived the first time through experience, and suddenly one of them overflows with his creativity and insight into a text that delights one of us, and he discovers through it what he had missed, and another responds to questions that echoed inside him for ages.. All of this is the result of a mixture of ink and imagination on paper pressed between two covers that are circulated by hands in the form of "portable magic" as Stephen King describes it. These selections do not aim at a specific recipe, nor a salvation that those aspiring for success in writing will reach, but they speak of the complexity of the experience just as life is complex, and that whoever has taken writing as a profession has dedicated himself to a journey with no rest. The writer does not rest from uncovering one of the mysteries of existence until another becomes clear to him, for he combines identity, experience, talent, and perspective, and from all of that, he produces a living text that transcends the lifespan of its author through its multiple readings and its extended influence among people, deeply rooted in language and life, in addition to what can be drawn from it, and in this he is bound by the prisons of interpretation and style. The first is the child of others, and the second is the child of eternity, either by employing it as it should be or by creating newness without paying attention to the prevailing. It emanates from the hands of its creator what deserves to remain among everything a reader finds on any shelf in the world. As for those who only want to adopt the identity of the writer, the first thing they should do is not to read this book, and they will find their way paved easily.
