I don't believe the only writing that matters is about real-world issues, by the way! If you write stuff that isn't serious, but makes people laugh (for example), it's doing good in the world.

Agree, Edward! But making people laugh, that can sometimes be very hard work. Not always, of course. As for "real-world issues", it's finally all real-world in the end, although it may not always seem so. That's all we really have. Maybe by "real-world" you mean current events & if so, that word "current" is unstable & will finally pass until we come to the next "current".

Yeah, I agree, writing genuinely funny humour is tough! I was just clarifying that I don't consider writing about 'serious' subjects to be the only meaningful writing.
