Lucy of Syracuse is considered the patron saint of writing because of a legend that says she plucked out her own eyes in a show of faith and devotion to God. This act of self-mutilation is often interpreted as symbolic of the importance of clear vision and insight in writing. Additionally, Lucy's name is associated with light and enlightenment, which are qualities often linked to the act of writing as a means of communication and expression.
