I have attained those standards, though infrequently, and I feel them not to be lofty at all. I think, with more practice, I can hit that mark regularly.
This is my 'moderate' level, by the by. I feel this alone is not enough to make a living of my writing. After this comes the next hurdle, that of capturing the muse's little hints to create that exceptional story those before me have mentioned. See, I think exceptional stories can be mis-written, and often are.
I think a great writer is someone who has paired competency in the craft of writing with mastery of the art of storycrafting.
