No Writer is an Island: The Competitive Nature of Writing

No Writer is an Island: The Competitive Nature of Writing

 I am an insanely competitive person. I blame it on my older brother. He’s two years my senior, which was just young enough to play games with me but still old enough to be better than me at them all. This, of course, annoyed me to no end. To this day, I am constantly grappling with a desire to be the best at whatever I do and when I am not, I hate it.
