Among other things, printing helped to develop a 'standard' language and a more codified form of spelling. Printing which was introduced into England by Caxton in 1476, helped to increase the spread of knowledge and literacy level among the British public as more and more people had better access to reading materials. Over the centuries, as more English texts were printed, such as novels, dictionaries, the Bible and other documents, the English language gradually gained popularity and established itself as the national language of England. Apart from the advent of printing, political, social and economic factors also contributed to the development of English as a national language. The speakers' attitude towards the language, the status of the language itself as well as colonialism later enhanced English position as an international language today.

I submitted a poem called 'A Friend Is' to Poetry.com last year and it was chosen to be published with the works of other writers. Before I decided to sign the agreement to let the publisher use my work, I already sensed that I was entering some kind of 'scam'. However, I also knew that I was not obliged to buy the book and could choose not to sign the agreement.The reason why I gave them the greenlight is not because I was so dumb or desperate to get published and recognition. I simply did it because I wanted to leave something behind to posterity and the opportunity came in the form of this anthology. I didn't have to find a publisher and negotiate to publish my work. I feel honoured in fact when a publisher offered to use my work. Although it is natural for writers to expect honorariums for their efforts, I personally don't write for the sake of making money.
