AN: Please, feel free to give me constructive criticism. I want to make my writing better for all of us. Disclaimer: I only own my OCs and nothing else.

my lack of imagination, and since I am a visual learner, I have difficulty visualizing and understanding what I am reading. This intro to college writing classes has moved me one step closer to becoming the writer that I desire to be and has taught me many things, among them, avoiding plagiarism, application of constructive criticism, and making my writing more interesting. In high school, I never cared to pay much attention to giving authors credit for their work and I definitely never cared to

Throughout the course of my writing career this semester at High Point University, I feel as if I have kept my reputation of being a good writer.

very complex, experienced writer. He has elaborate stories that catch any type of reader. In the book Stephen King On Writing he teaches us his experiences with writing and in his own opinion how writing works, from the inside out. He shares that the editor or person revising your page may not always be correct but to take the advice given and use it to your best in your writing.

John Gottman spoke of criticism in his writings of the Four Horsemen. He talks about that divorce can be predicted with around a 90% accuracy. In my research I have found criticism among the top reasons for strife and failing marriages.
