I feel like this is one of those 'It's the climb' things, where the act if writing is as rewarding as the result itself. Just like painters and musicians get to experience their arts we, the writers, get to experience ours. Words. Their meaning and usage in our languages. But, unlike painters and musicians, our tools have a meaning behind them. Each word has it's own meaning, be it a word like 'food' or 'cathartic'. Behind those words is knowledge. Textbooks are not coded in music or a painting. Textbooks are books. The book that you are writing (or reading) right now contains knowledge, or some knowledge was required to write the book. As writers, we have to learn that knowledge is a part of our art. Sure, it can be annoying, but have you learned anything? If yes, then it is the most valuable thing in this world. You've grown as a person. Other arts make us grow as a person but writing makes us grow as a person after our brains grow to be able to handle that personality. And that is truly beautiful
