Personal Narrative: My Passion For Writing

My writing experience started in high school. I was part of the high school yearbook. I was business editor as a freshman up to being the editor my senior year. I also participated on the newspaper staff. I had some experience in college, but I did not finish college. I then did not have any more experience until I started work as a leader at Nisco. I finally started college classes again.

First and foremost, it wasn't until I seriously took to writing outside of the classroom that I was able to clearly communicate with my audience.

I don’t really like writing because whenever my teacher tells me to write about something I start to get confused on what to say then I start to get mad at myself and start to cry.The best thing I have ever written is when I had to wrote about legos, it was a nine pages and alot idioms and more.

The reason I love writing is because, when given the freedom to do so, it is very similar to talking on paper. My last name is Merchant, and merchant is a seller or trader. So as to live up to our name, the whole Merchant family can talk about anything. But what I really enjoy writing about is my opinion. I have an opinion on just about any topic. Furthermore,

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.

memoir about my father. This memoir described and expressed the feelings that I had and

When it comes to my passion most don’t understand it the way I do. For the past three years my passion has been lacrosse. Since I was a freshman at Sandalwood High School my interests for the sport have grown and my devotion and commitment have reached new limits. Most people don’t understand lacrosse, they just know that it is a sport “with sticks and stuff”, and while I don’t take offense to ignorance; sharing my passion with others is never a burden. Lacrosse is one of the biggest parts of my life as of now and I believe it will continue to be for many years to come, but there’s more to the sport than most people know. Lacrosse has a history behind it older than any other sport in America, as well as the fact that as of now,

Writing has never been a real interest of mine. The only time I had to write any of my thoughts on paper was in school. I believed that one had to have that special trait or gift in them that made them a good writer, just like athletes are gifted in their sport. After reading the articles by Pat Mora and the other one from George Orwell, there can be many reasons as to why anyone would like to write.

The reason I write dictates my writing process. As an invisible person living in a world of highly observable beings, I strive to have value. We materialize as actual beings of worth upon being heard, and written words add acceptable credence. When thoughts dissipate, written words remain solid, so to share my victories, my joys, my struggles and my sadness may inspire individuals to complete a dream, or help overcome hardships. Therefore, with insightful stories, I can give back to humanity.

Why do you write? Is it because you love to write or ,you have to write for a school assignment or etc. I know Stephen King writes because he loves it. Every day he is willing to block the world out and just write. He encourages others to be willing to shut a door and write in other words block the world out and get rid of distractions and just write your heart out. I found this quote to be interesting in his piece”When you write,you want to get rid of the world do you not?... When you’re writing, you’re creating your own worlds”(21,King). I love the message this sends use your imagination, express yourself through your writing.That’s what I hope to be able to achieve. On the other hand some writers write because they feel like they have

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.

However, journaling doesn’t always have to be all self-indulgent. Even though I’ve written about how living with Lyme disease has affected my life, my memoir story about my days as a competitive gymnast and even writing my very own resume; I still had to conform to the writing rules of the class and keep from being self-indulgent while self-examining. It was still always important and required to exercise critical thought, enhanced expression and conscious

Hi! I'm Shalie, I'm 18, and I've been reading your books since I was about 12... I mean that's probably a bit young to start reading your books but it's fine. I haven't read some of your more recent ones, I think the last one I've read is Tilt. I sort of lost my passion for reading and writing in 9th grade and didn't get it back till 11th grade (i've graduated high school now though!) I struggled a lot I had to force myself to write but I'm now trying to write every day!

Unlike Stephen King, I am someone who likes to stay inside my comfort zone. I don’t like sharing things that are personal to me, especially things I’ve created myself, like my writing. This is mostly because I find it to be incredibly embarrassing, even if the topic isn’t about me. When I was younger, I would do everything in my power to avoid having to show people my writing, to attach my name to my piece of work. Although I still struggle with it, I’ve become more comfortable with sharing my work and having it critiqued as I’ve grown older.

Writing has always played a huge role in my life. I’ve been reading writing for as long as I can remember as I have an immense love of reading. This love would grow into a love for writing as well; I still stumble upon journals and writings from my five-year-old self about the happenings in my kindergarten class. As time would go on I would discover academic writing, and how to convey my thoughts on what was the topic of student that particular year or semester in my schooling. Later, writing would become a constant for me, and a comfort; I was known to my friends as always having a journal, and a pen on my person. I learned to write down my feelings and my thoughts, song lyrics that were in my head, reflections for the day. I learned how
