Lately I've been having a thought about something and lately, I feel like expressing my opinion of it. All I ask is to not think I'm complaining or asking for any sympathy of sorts.

Lately I've been sort of noticing that writers tend to be ignored simply because they don't create the visuals with colors, but rather with words. And I've also noticed, people seem to not bother reading those words to see the beauty that is created. I just find it disappointing that some of my work, as well as every other author out there, gets passed simply because we use words over visuals. It's also a bit tedius hearing the same excuses each time for why people don't read them, even if it is the truth each time. We all are able to create incredible works of art, some even better than those with crayons and paint, but it just gets really hard to remain strong with writing with this kind of treatment. Plus, I find that in some cases, words express more beauty than pictures themselves, simply because each person is allowed to make their own interpretation from what is presented.
I know that as with art, if you don't write the right things, you won't get the views, but something tells me even if I did, I'd still be overlooked.
Don't worry, I'm not quitting or anything, far from it in fact. I just wanted to get that load of steam off my chest. If I sound like I'm trying to be better than others, I do appolgise. That is not my intention. I'm just voicing something authors probably think.
Thanks for listening.
