Becoming A Successful Writer

There are many who strive to become famous writers and although some succeed, many do not find such great prosperity. In the words of bestselling author Stephen King, “while it is impossible to make a competent writer out of a bad writer, and while it is equally impossible to make a great writer out of a good one, it is possible, with lots of hard work, dedication, and timely help, to make a good writer out of a merely competent one,” (142). King’s thesis from his novel On Writing can be debated because with “hard work, dedication, and timely help” it is possible for a writer of any skill level to improve to become better. On Writing is intended to teach the basic skills of writing so readers can develop writing skills to progress to be better writers. If one has passion for writing, patience, and the willingness to learn they will succeed in becoming great writers.

The Articles of Confederation is often described as the country’s first constitution. Weaknesses in the Articles of Confederation led to the U.S. Constitution.

From writing thoughtful poems to research papers, I have experienced composing a diverse portfolio of literary analysis and criticisms throughout the school year. I started out the year writing minimally. By the end of the year, I noticed I was able to express my ideas and thoughts in a more clear and concise way on paper.

In the short essay, “Becoming a Writer,” penned by Russell Baker, he spoke of a memory from his past that later changed his perception of writing.

So I have become a way better writer than how I ever been in my high school career. My vocabulary has extended dramatically since being in Humanities Amp. I feel that i am a better writer, I used to use run-on sentences a lot in my essays and any other form of writing. I hate using big words, i know that means you have a large vocabulary, but i don’t really care about that. I feel that I don’t need to show that, but it is good to have it. I feel that i can improve more ,but I have become a great writer.

My post secondary goal after high school is to go to the Vet Tech Institute of Pittsburgh to become a veterinarian technician within a span of eighteen months. I am hoping this Honors English course will help to improve my writing skills, note taking skills, and get me use to the type of things I will experience in college. If I were to improve as a writer it would benefit me by improving my ability to do lab write-ups. If I incorporate my grammar skills into my vocabulary it will also benefit me in seeming to be a more intelligent young adult, which will hopefully cause the teachers to take me more seriously. By becoming a better writer I could become a better student altogether. Becoming a better note taker is a skill I really hope I adapt

Many people have trouble with reading and writing till this day.

Everyone has weaknesses but there are many ways to overcome them, such as a reader and writer. I am a prime example of having this weakness.

After I graduated from college three years ago, I wanted to quickly break into the writing world. I knew I had a writer 's mind and a writer 's blood, yet I didn 't acknowledge the true commitment it took to become a good writer.

Looking back on it, there could not have been a better way to start the greater part of my high school career than Composition I. The writing skills I learned throughout this course will help me later in my writing career. Compositions I made me a successful writer and helped me grow. Each essay in Composition I was different, and thus brought on different challenges. Through it all, it was worth, and I would not be where I am right now if it was not for Composition I.

Writing is spontaneous. Writing can be ideas jotted down on to a paper without a rhyme or reason, or possibly with more reason than the paper itself. Writing is a beautiful art that one will overlook time and time again, because it requires a likewise thought process of something greater than reality. Not just anybody could revolve oneself around writing, although occupationally, being a writer would require education, patience and creativity.

I started writing fiction in elementary school, and never looked back. Tucked away among old report cards and craft projects, my mother still has the multicolored notebook containing my first short story, written when I was in first grade. (It's a treat. I may share it here at some point.) So, when I say that writing in ingrained in me, that it's part of who I am, I mean it.

There is a multitude of jobs and careers I want to have, as some of you may know, but I think we’re only allowed to talk about one. However, there is one job in particular that I know that I’ll do, whether I’m paid for it or not. That job is writing. Not only do you need language skills, but I believe that you will need creativity and an immense amount of patience in order to be a successful writer of any sort.

There are thirty-one states within the United States that has the death penalty (Jurisdictions with no recent executions, 2017). Although thirty-one states have a death penalty, executions are rare or non-existing in most states (Jurisdictions with no recent executions, 2015). In 2015, only six states carried out executions (Jurisdictions with no recent executions, 2015). The death penalty has been a topic people argued over since it was first established. Many arguments have been made stating the positive impact from the death penalty, but there has also been arguments made against it. One of the arguments that has been made against the death penalty is the fear that an innocent person may be executed. This argument is one of the reasons
