I am a 28 year old English major at Southeastern Louisiana University. I'm a staff writer for the Lion's Roar and do a little freelance work on the side. I am fueled by coffee chocolate. I hope to see the world one day, and write it all down.

Arts & Humanities > American Literature James Frey and the A Million Little Pieces controversy

3 of 14

I hope to be a writer one day. It's something I've enjoyed doing ever since I was a child. I think it branches from my need to tell a story. That's what writing is after all, telling stories. Some stories stretch the imagination and take the reader to a place of fantasy. Other stories are meant to inspire and reveal certain truths. A good writer always tells a good story. However, is telling a good story a writer's only responsibility? I think not. When writing a work intended to be published as non-fiction, I think a writer has the responsibility to tell the truth.
