The unheard of super power
We all know the great powers of super strength, flying, telekinesis, and shape shifting but do we know about the power of writing? Our world is changed, and driven by writers who have a passion for the unknown. Writing is a super power much like Rogue’s in X Men due to the fact that it is under-powered with a stronger moral aspect to it. ( The X Men is a comic series that tells the tale of mutants who have powers that fight for their rights, or even against each other. There are good mutants and bad mutants.) Rogue’s power in X men is that she can absorb the memories, ability, personalities, and outward physical characteristics of beings through skin to skin contact. She is one of my favorite super heroes even if she is under rated in the series. Rogue’s abilities make her have to make moral decision as a superhero which sometimes conflicts with the greater good. A writer has much of the same powers with the same drawbacks.
Absorbing memories to pen them down
A person who has taken a liking to writing is a separate entity from someone who is creating words on a paper because they must quiet the demons who keep creating vast worlds. The liker of writing is someone who picks up a book criticizes it’s plot line and places it down never to read it again but a writer is someone who re-reads that same book trying to inquire how the imagination made such an interestingly written world. We are the absorbers of the world. If you ask a writer how we remember our story with such a vast amount of distractions around us? Most of us will respond with the memories of our mind hold the story we create for us, or even our own fingers have an implanted memory of the story we are developing. Just like how Rogue gets flashes of the person’s memories in her mind we get flashes of our character’s story flooding through our eyes till it bleeds out on paper. I like to call this the first step of being a superhero which is being unable to get rid of the character in your head.
