My Writing Process Analysis

The Capella University writing process includes four main parts. First, there is a prewriting, which allows the student to generate ideas of what the content of the assignment will be (Capella University, 2017). This step creates the audience and the purpose of the assignment. The next step is drafting the assignment, which allows the student to document the evidence that supports the main ideas (Capella University, 2017). This step is important because it helps determine if the evidence presented strongly supports the topic. The next step of the writing process is revising, which allows the student to make changes that will strengthen the content of the assignment (Capella University, 2017). Revising is another important step that

When you start to think about it, quickly you realize that almost everything we do in life has some sort of writing around it. Whether it be sending a simple text message or writing a long essay we all have to have the common foundation of how to write. As students progress their way through high school we are often pounded with the rules of writing. By the time you get to be a upperclassman you quickly learn that your days of learning how to write are not over once you get to college. As someone who is looking to study Aeronautics at Liberty University, still, the days of learning to write are far from over. Because Liberty University requires students to participate in two writing based classes my skills will continue to be developed. Even

The writing of my college essay was quite a process. Normally for me writing comes rather easy, I do not struggle putting my ideas on paper. At first I thought that this essay would be simple to do and not be very stressful. It turned out to be quite the opposite in fact, just brainstorming was a struggle for me. It was difficult for me to think about my life and how it is special. To me, the events that have shaped me do not seem that relevant, at 18 I had never really payed much attention to how certain things affected me, I just lived my life. eventually , with the help of Mary, I came to the realization that having my summer taken away from me due to a broken foot had really changed my life philosophy, it truly changed who I was and my outlook on life.

Over the past four months, I have made great strides as a writer. The area where I have seen the most growth is in my use of the writing process. Prior to my enrollment in this course, I would sit down and write all my papers in one sitting. This class has taught me how to lay out a plan for my papers. I have learned how to effectively brainstorm/research, draft, and revise my writings before I complete them. Also I have learned to not just stop there, instead I am now going back and reflecting on my work after I complete it. This allows me to identify where I prospered and also where my downfalls may have been. With this information, I am able to apply this to future writings of mine; lessons that will stay with me forever.

Students are assigned a variety of writing tasks throughout college. Whether it is an assignment in an orientation class or a term paper, students will need to include information from scholarly peers to help prove their point and make a credible stance. Thankfully students can include data from scholarly articles as long as they give proper credit to the author(s) from whom they received the information. Among the many issues that a student could potentially face is overusing resources. By not including enough of their thought on a subject, the work could become a collage of other writer’s work that a student merely puts his name on. To help avoid such an issue, one must remember that no more than 15% percent of a paper should include quotes

I am writing this because it is probably the only time in all of my academic writing where I felt I could just be honest.

Have you ever been confused, or even clueless about what to write about for that paper that’s due? Figuring out what you’re going to write about can sometimes be easier said than done. The writing process can be mentally painful, but the more effort you put in can mean the difference between a bad draft and a well-developed paper. My writing process is very time consuming and sometimes stressful. It’s like having to solve a really long math problem; your head is all over the place at first because you don’t even know where to start. A lot of time that is how I feel right before I begin writing a paper. These papers can often take a lot of time especially when you’re trying to incorporate each stage of the writing process. Self-motivation is

As any artist does in their particular work of art, in order to become a great writer, you must be completely invested in what you are creating. Sentences must flow as if brush strokes, words must compile to create cohesive, clear, and complex thoughts as if colors. Writing is just as much of an art as painting, sculpting, or drama. Just like in writing, every artist has a particular style- the way the artist uses his brush, colors, canvas, tools- In writing a style can be shown by the writers distinct use of different sentence structures, distinct types of vocabulary, or other components that distinguish one writer from another. For myself, a great contributor into my style of writing was developed from a sense of humor obtained from a creative

Writing tends to be one of the best forms of presenting and preserving information. However, “poor” writing may not offer the desired message, is full of errors, offers irrelevant information or is uninteresting to the audience. I have been striving to develop my writing through various activates that entail freewriting and reading the “best” articles. Hence, my writing has significantly improved because it adheres to most of the applicable principles and procedures.

Following the outline process, I decided to start typing the rough draft. I first started my introduction giving the audience an idea of what the essay will be about. I did not know entirely what I wanted the audience to know so I found myself typing and deleting a lot. I decided to divide the essay in proportions to what I want to explain. I chose to discuss improvements, changes, and goals for the following semester. I noticed I then spent five minutes staring at how I was going to start the explanation. This could be for two reasons – perhaps I needed a break from writing or perhaps I did not take enough time planning. I honestly did not know. I eventually figured out how to gather the information to begin the paper.

Creative Writing is something that everyone is capable of. And we can all improve our creative writing - and our enjoyment of it - in a great number of ways.

I would like to learn more about all of the steps of the writing process and I am sure that I will by reading other class mates writings. I have chosen to investigate step one of the writing process “Survey the archives”. Which is the beginning of the writing process. This is a step which I have always struggled with. It is difficult to decide what to write about. At times there are too many choices to write about and I have a hard time narrowing down the appropriate topic. Still other times I can’t find interesting facts that go along with the assigned topics. This step can take me a long time. Once I find the topic that fits with the assignment the other steps become easier. I am hoping to make this step much easier.

Craft In writing 1, I obtained different techniques of crafting for my own story and organize in the right way for me and the readers to see. As for the PLO, craft was described as, “A language that reveals aesthetic awareness from writing.” Writing has always been one of my weakest subjects me since I find it difficult to start a writing assignment and I also struggle having some ideas so I should begin writing. Over the course of this semester, I have learned ways to improve my writing structure. When doing my weekly journals, I enjoyed how I get to share my opinions on weekly reading assignments. During the first week of journal (Weekly Journal #1), I get to express my perspective of a sanctuary place after reading an article called, “The Sanctuary of School” by Lynda Barry. Another weekly journal I enjoyed writing was my experience with racial tension in public place. It was during our third week (Weekly

What I understand to be good writing, is writing that is cohesive, clear, and thought provoking. Good writing means that your audience has been able to read your writing and obtain the information you were trying to convey, and at the same time do it in a way that keeps the reader interested. A good writer, however, is the mechanism to execute this “good writing”. I think that in order to be a good writer, you need to take on critiques from your peers, write many drafts, and expanded your vocabulary to come up with words that are more precise to what you are trying to convey in your writing to ensure effectiveness. Something that I have learned about myself as a writer, throughout the process of writing my personal statement, is that sometimes

Writing is far from being appealing to me but it isn’t appalling too. The only times I scribe are those when I don’t have the option to say “No, thank you”. Yet, I believe that it is important to know how to communicate efficiently my own ideas for when I will hopefully become scientist (Physics major) I must formulate the most complex theories and conjectures on my papers clearly and concisely. Like mathematics to natural sciences, writing is a helpful tool to maximize your capacity and enhance the quality of my work. For all this reasons, it is crucial to master the art of writing and sharpen my pen.
