Now that you have an idea what a Medium is or at least a basic idea, we can now get to the question at the title of this post. Do Mediums make better writers or is this complete nonsense. The answer to that question at least, in my opinion, would be yes. It's one thing to have a great imagination and that’s awesome, I happen to have one myself. However, it’s another thing to be able to experience the supernatural in real life and actually talk to the spirits that are watching over us. Mediums are perhaps the best “unknown” writers because many of them keep to themselves and not everybody is a believer of spirits.

As a result, Mediums don’t have to tap into their imagination too much or rely on using cliché ideas from other books. They have the unique ability to use their personal encounters in their works and readers will be able to see the authenticity of the writer’s experience. Even if the writer should use that experience in fictional works, it will still prove to be beneficial. You see people want to be able to go to the other side and see what happens when one dies. Mediums with their ability to talk to the other side can enhance their stories naturally without forcing it into their story. Writing comes to those chosen ones easier as in their own little world anything that can happen, does happen. In otherwords, with their special gift, Mediums can create worlds that no one else would even think of creating. They’re able to create stories that are anything but cliché or superficial to other readers. World building comes to these special easily and characterization can be rather complex as they will go beyond the corporal world. It’s only a shame that these people who are mediums and authors aren’t bestselling authors. Then again, just like me, they do it for the art, not for the money. In fact, as a rule, Mediums are not allowed to sell their abilities to others. This is where writing comes in, where there are no rules to what a book needs to be.

The secret to a good book and a good selling one at that is making it outside the box. Mediums possess the greatest ability to think outside the box and make their stories very special and unique to their readers. Although to some non-believers reading a story written by a Medium might scare their pants off. If you read The Thousand Years War, there are many references to the supernatural that normal human beings would not be able to comprehend. The reason it took me so little time to write the epic novel was because everything came naturally. In fact, the “paranormal” parts or the points of the story where my abilities shine were the easiest and most enjoyable to write. The reason for that was because I had experiences that were similar, making me enjoy writing my first novel that much more. From that point on writing and world building became much easier, simply because of my gift.
