Personal Narrative: My Role As A Writer

I started to write when I was 10 years old. It was under the recommendation of my therapist who believed that it would help me release negative emotions, and it did. Since then I have loved to write stories, journals, poems, anything that could set my imagination free. However as a writer I’ve always felt unsuccessful I have always felt that the pieces I write are never completed. Even more that as a writer I was not good enough and I shouldn’t show my writings to anyone that I shouldn't even bother to continue as a writer. These reason both motivate me and make me not want to continue but I choose to let it motivate me because I

There I was sitting in the guest room of my aunts house. It was hot, the AC was busted, and I have not even started my history project. “I knew I should have started this sooner.” I said to myself. Ten minutes pass, and I'm still writing the first paragraph, when all of a sudden I hear a voice. “Take a little break man; you’re stressing yourself out.” I tried to ignore it, but the next thing I knew my left arm began to reach for my phone. I stopped myself. “I have to finish this project.” I said to myself, but I was not strong enough to stop myself a second time. As my phone sent a notification about a new video, my left arm sprang up and grabbed my phone. I wasn’t in control of myself. I couldn’t stop myself. It felt like the drive to

As a writer, there are many challenges I face, requiring strength in different areas in order to overcome them. My greatest challenges would be momentum, writer’s block, and confidence. When a writer understands their challenges they can become their greatest strengths. When I am writing it is important to have the adequate momentum to get from notes to final draft. I often find myself losing steam and have difficulty getting my momentum back. Allowing myself to get distracted, taking too many breaks, or starting my writing when I know I will not have time to complete it all, contributes to my failed momentum. Writer’s block can easily be considered the Achilles heel for all authors. When I can’t form a thought worth writing down, I

I have always loved writing ever since we started having writing prompts in elementary school. I was always so excited to give out a story. I would make these elaborate stories that evolved some fantasy aspects. The only thing that would mess me up in my writing process is that I would have a difficult time setting up the start of the story. The video talked about this, and advised me to get a journal or diary. This would help me write anyway I like without judgment. I am fairly new to the revision part of writing. I would always turn in my draft as is, but now that I think about I would love someone who can give me some advice on my drafts. I've never had a full writing process myself. This has lead to writer's block in the past drafts.

This semester we have done many activities/sessions that have really helped me grow as a reader, writer, and as a learner in general. We have done everything from writing a literary essay, to learning how to write with argumentative purposes.

I am not a writer. I hate writing, I would rather Jump out of a airplane and I am scared of heights then write a story. I like to tell stories but I don't like to write one. I don't like to write stuff about me. I would write something fake like fiction but I'm not good at it.

My immediate goals as a writer is to use my imagination and to use my own ideas I naturally come up with. I seek to become a better writer now so that in the future, it’ll turn out different, for the better. I want to be more confident in my writing and be sure that it’ll go far. For example, if I decide to continue writing, perhaps novels, I would want to have the time now to practice and be well-prepared. I would also want to do good in high school and get into AP classes, not only to get in, but to maintain an average grade. My long-range goals as a writer is to become a novelist. If I don’t find another job that suits me well, my next choice would be to become a novelist. I would want to learn all of the skills while I still can to develop

Throughout the course of my time here in Olympia, my skills as a writer have blossomed and developed exponentially. From what I’ve seen and gone through this past year I’ve got quite a lot of inspiration and plenty of drive to keep me creative and functioning as an aspiring author. One thing that’s pushed me to dig deeper into my mind for a stronger story has been this blog. The prompts given to us have really made me reflect on myself, which I admittedly don’t do that often. This final entry should wrap up what this blog has done for me this semester, and show you what changes I’ve made as a growing author.

My key responsibility was to understand the business scenarios of customer & net-new accounts to identify operational/business issues in various lines of businesses.

When I was growing up, I always had a passion for reading and telling stories. My mom has scrapbooks of my first stories written in awkward, over-sized letters complete with illustrations brought to life with crayons. Throughout my school years, I always had a book with me. The bigger the book was, the more I loved it. I was discouraged from pursuing a career in writing, but I had a passion for stories that only grew over time.

Stephen Kings once said, “The scariest moment is always just before you start.” A quote that describes how I feel every time am given a writing assignment. I often find it easier to start with my body paragraphs to ease the thought of starting with an intro. My journey as a writer from childhood to young adult has been slow, transitional, growing, revealing, and challenging.

I do not like to write. The thought of me being a writer is a small thought because I don’t like writing. I don’t like writing because I don’t find it interesting. But I do like reading because most writers put a lot of details into their stories. All of my memories of writing assignments are bad. As a kid, I did not like when we had to write what we did as a kid like trips and other things where I had to explain myself. Every writing assignment seems like torture because I don’t like writing. When a teacher says we have a writing assignment I feel like I want to cry.

As a writer, I would define myself as someone putting a check in the box. I have never

It’s hard to recall a time where I’ve succeeded in creating a somewhat decent paper, mostly because I never wrote much as a high school student. However, last semester, I did write three essays for my Psychology class which resulted in a good grade and very great feedback. I put a lot of time in coming up with personal examples that would interest my professor. As I expected, my professor loved how personal my essays were and how I met the criteria.

tem A: The main challenges I face as a writer is getting started. Sometimes I have a hard time focusing on the main idea if an assignment and what is to be done. Once I start on the assignment I have to just sit for a few minutes and then begin. To help myself overcome these challenges I have learned to do start in a quite enviornment with no distraction. Also I have learned to reread my instructions several times over and make sure to highlight the some important key words.
