The Authors...

Great writers are hard to find. Sure there are millions of writers in the world but most of them lack the spark. The spark is when a writer creates a world that is so personal that makes the reader enter into that secret world and become lost. A world that makes the reader feel what the writer feels. There are few writers throughout the centuries who have mastered that technique. There are however three distinctive writers that are known worldwide. Jane Austen, Charlotte Bronte and Shakespeare. Shakespeare is mostly known for being a playwright but is a writer believe it or not.
