As an author, what is your great responsibility? Some say to provide entertainment. If that is the case, you are missing the biggest picture. You are missing the point of the power of the wielding the pen.
As a pen-wielder, your biggest responsibility should be social reform, education and then entertainment. A true author can master them all flawlessly. Those are the ones I love to read. I want a book that can make me cry, make me angry, make me smile and call me to action. Maybe I'm alone in this regard.

When You Write
When you write as an author, think about who will read it. Think about what it says to them today and what it will say to them in the future. Think about whether it is something you'd want your child to read or live by. You have the power, the power of the pen. Wield it wisely.
