  Why I Write?
IN THE NAME OF GOD
ESSAY FOR THE COURSE ESSAY WRITING
BY: S.M.Raziee (Soodaroo)
“It’s me that Write”

It is ask of communication that wants human being to try to have the power of language, and could read, write and speak. Reaching the point of adult, I, the same as every one in the world, trying to reach my wishes- wishes that I have from my childhood, and one of them is: to be a famous writer. I have life in a usual middle-class family in the big city, Mashhad, and grown up to be a member of our society, as my family; have high education, being best in the things I wish to do, and work hard. I find my way in the world of literature, and try to reach my goals, be a journalist, at the same time work as a poet, writer and translator.
It was about four years ago that I start to write poems, and continued it through all my life after that day. Poem is a means in the empty life of big cities that help me to say: I am alive. It is hard to say I choose poetry for the means of communication, better to say words find me to come out in the lines of my works. In the time I start to write, floods of words comes out of my soul, and I unconsciously fill the papers in front of myself, and after that I can read my poems, love them and sometimes change them, and hopefully, publish them.
Writing short story has a more conscious process than poetry. I imagine them in my mind during times I have, in the bus or class or while I was speaking seriously with my instructors. I write real things happened all through my own life, through my real days, things that I read in papers, stories that I heard, faces and conversation I listened, and so on, and to my mind I change them in the way of my wishes, change a man into a little girl, go to moon to find location, and smiled in the time that I cried. It is the process of plot and characters; next, I put my imagination in papers and have short stories as well as poems.
In the time I see a perfect work of literature in English language, my whole body and my entire soul trembled by the power of words and atmosphere of text. I have a long list of works that I want to translate them through years I have in front of myself. Translation has magical energy that no one can ever find anywhere in the world instead of this work: translation. I start translating while I am afraid of English poetry about one years ago, I find a poem called “Alone” by Edgar Allan Poe, and I felt that I want to translate it and I did it, today I have some texts in front of myself that are waiting to be translated. This time I am sure that I would complete conscious process while I do translation.
It was about two years ago that I decide to be a journalist, as my main work during my life. Writing in the papers and magazines give the writer the power of fame in the reality. I mean you can write, you can prove that it is a human power, it is I, and you can think and your ideas go all through your readers mind. I prefer to be an editor after working about 5 years as an ordinary writer in the literary pages.
I choose English Language and Literature as my field of study in the university and I am glad of my choice. In this field I taught English language, how to write and read and speak, I give power of listening and through my knowledge I can read as much as possible: novels, short stories and dramas are waiting me, same as me that wait and loved them. I find a means of communication, and I am in the way to reach my wishes: be a famous writer in the world.
