My Personal Writing : My Journey Of Being A Writer

I have always struggled with my writing assignments. If I had the option not to write I would take that option with no hesitation. I truly dreaded it, when we have to type essays. Now, I have been into two English classes where I have felt a little more comfortable in being able to write something without being so embarrassed or ashamed in what I’m about to turn it. I still feel horrible about my spelling and grammar.

During this spring semester, I have grown in many ways as a writer, and a student. I have started to realize, and accept the flaws that I have created in my writing. In the past, I never looked into my writings and saw my problems, and if I did, I did not accept that they were problems. In my writing pieces in the past, I was very hard-headed about what I thought was correct versus what was actually correct. I have also become More familiar with different formatting options on Microsoft Word to create a more professional piece or writing. However, figuring out all the parts of writing and making them work together is the most difficult part of writing.

My writing has improved greatly over the years. Now, I am able to write much longer papers, my writing is more detailed, my writing is straight, I am able to write in different styles, and my letters aren't shaped weirdly anymore. All and all, my writing has improved a good amount. I still do not enjoy writing that much. I am really enjoying math and science right now. The writing that I do like, is writing about a subject that I choose with no guidelines. My past writing pieces that I have done, have been the personal narrative (in 6th grade), and the researched based writing project (also in 6th grade). Both of those projects I did not enjoy that much, because we worked on those two projects for a long time. Even thought I do not enjoy writing

Throughout the seven weeks that I have taken this writing composition course, I have developed skills to help me improve my own writing. Using the writing process is one of the main focuses in the course. The writing process helps writers develop and revise their essay as they work their way up to creating the final draft that can be presented. Although there are many areas in my own writing where I can get better, I have found that my writing has improved in many ways while practicing using the writing process.

The best writing I’ve ever produced is from last semester I wrote a paper for Sociology on how the movie “Selma” related to what we were learning in class. This is the best writing I’ve produced because I thought long and hard about what I was going to write and ended up making a 100 on the paper which I was very excited about. Another reason is that I’m not particularly exceptional at writing I struggle with what words to use and how to really make my writing mean something to the person reading it, and my teacher left me a comment saying how I had thought outside the box and done very well. When I’m writing, my only fear is that I could be using better words so that’s why after I write a paper I always like to continuously edit it until I’m satisfied. Challenges for me are thinking of what to write I guess you could say that I get writers block and I must take breaks and really think about what I want my paper to convey, but once I get an idea usually I’m and can come up with more ideas it’s just really that first few sentences in a paragraph that get me.

Al, Alde, de, shon, deshon, and Al’Deshon my name takes on many forms. Kind of like my writing in a sense. I have never been a strong writing also being the reason, I took this class first semester I think. If I get it out of the way maybe I’ll have an easier chance of reaching the finish line happening to be graduation.

My writing journey has been pretty remarkable over the years. A lot of trial and error was utilized in discovering the writing style and techniques that would give me the most sense of accomplishment. I’ve been learning through the unit learning activities so far as College Composition II will be a bit more challenging due to the expectation of being able to write an effective academic piece from a formal perspective. There is always room for improvement which is why this semester I want to work on three aspects of my writing: sentence structure, grammar, and learning how to effectively grab my audience’s attention. Sentence structure and grammar have been difficult aspects for me to grasp in my writing due to the lack of frequency in writing academic papers.

In the class the thing that I least enjoyed the most was figuring out my writing process. This is because we had to do a auto-ethnography by completing a writing assignment while at the same time speak out loud everything that we thought. After this we had to type everything that we stated in our recording and code thoughts that we wrote down. Despite the fact I did not like the part of the auto-ethnography I did enjoy seeing what my writing process was. Originally, in the beginning of this writing process I thought that I had a structured writing process. I thought my writing process started with me first planning out what I wanted to write then I spent the rest of my time writing my paper and my final step was revising my paper. After doing

Throughout my school education, my writing process have improved but, not to the point where I’m proud of my writing skills. Although I always have difficulties when it comes to writing, I also like what I write specially when the topic relates to your personal life. One main thing that I do like about my writing is that I’m straightforward and clear to what I’m trying to explain. Many of my english teachers especially during high school, they have always told me that my writing is understandable but, is really hard for me to organize my ideas. Organizing my ideas into an essay is a challenge for me because I have always struggle with that and I would like to improve it because is a really important step in the writing process. When it comes

First of all I would like to express my great heartfelt thanks for the time we had passed throughout the course and semester. It was interesting and nice because learning in funny way is among one of the best methodology teaching method to make students feel free rather than being annexed by professors.

My experience with writing has been very up and down because I have a hard time focusing on the topic. I would say that’s something I need to honestly work on because my attitude is if I'm not into it then I'm not doing it simple. Some of my past teachers in high school said that I could write but I honestly don’t know about now. I'll admit that I've gotten lazy in the sense that if I'm not into the work then I'll just pass it with a D or just retake it. I need to get out of that and just suck it up and get it over and done with.

People always aspire to get better at something. Whenever someone starts to learn something new, they’re not good at it right off the bat. This is the case for learning how to write and develop arguments. I started to write in elementary school, and I was not excellent at it. After many years of writing, I have definitely grown to be a better writer. My papers in SLC have better word choice than in my FLC papers.

Here I am now! Still writing about what I feel, think and dream about, not only does it make me feel fulfilled inside I love to revise what I read, which broaden my perspective of what I could not see before regarding certain situation in my personal life plus more skills to write. Most of the time before I lie down to sleep, I write at least one to two pages, or sometimes when I arise in the morning. Writing helps me cope with all parts of life it’s my very own private cushion to my universe. My urge for writing will always be here until God says otherwise. Now, when it comes to reading the only problem, I have is it’s a sleeping pills that puts me to sleep without the dose; I read myself to sleep all the time. Reading teach me to explore

Whenever I engage myself in a book or any kind of article, the only ones that mostly catch my eye are the ones that make me feel like I’m completely captivated into the world of the writer. This experience is what inspired me to start writing. As I matured, I had begun to find a deep interest in the journalistic world of the fashion industry. The thought of the combination between English literature with fashion completely astonished me at a young age the more I researched over what fashion exactly was. To me fashion is the ultimate way to artistically express a person’s individual style. It’s a way to tell a story, a mood, or even a personality. The way it can define a person inspires me. The types of colors you choose, the statement accessories, the various types of styles, can all come together to create a unique style of each and every person in the world.

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how lucky I am to be a writer. Ideas and phrases have always fluttered around my head and I had never really questioned it; a good friend of mine said something recently that made me. We were sat in a small booth at a local diner sipping on coffee as I casually explained the premise of a short story I had just written. She looked up from her cup, puzzled, and simply asked, “How did you come up with that?” I had no idea how to explain to her that sometimes things just come to me and then I write them down. It was in that moment I realized not everyone had the mind of a writer.
