The people of the park expressed their concerns and issues to Mr. Lassiter and the park ranger through many letters. John Nicholson was able to apologize and explain to the park ranger why he took the windows out of his home. Also Ms. Nicholson was able to discuss her moving to another house to benefit her health and well being. One park resident stated that he was writing a book on the bible and another stated he had never attended school and learned to read or write properly. Despite these facts I believe all the people who wrote these letters are writers. They were able to convey their point properly to their intended audience.

Being a writer can mean being able to properly convey an idea or argument. The definition of a writer can include anyone who attempts to make a point by writing down what they want to say. Despite of lack of schooling it is shown that anyone can be a writer. The man who had no formal education was still able to report his problem to park officials and explain his situation to others.
