Words Let's Me Our Guest Analysis

Writers come in all shapes and forms, portraying their own life lessons and view of the world to influence a greater audience. Keith Lesmeister, the author of various short story works and his new book, “We Could Have Been Happy Here” never considered himself a writer. Through his own development of writing style, writing process, and desire to address the issues of today he shares his passion and heart of writing.

I am Brittany Humes –Cox and I was born and raised in a small town in Illinois, known as Carbondale. My biological mother suffers from a drug addiction and my father made other choices aside from being a part of my childhood. As a result, my two older brothers and I were raised by my maternal grandmother. As a young child, I would always question why me however, I became adamant not allow my circumstance to detour my success. I found peace in playing basketball along with writing poems to mend my broken

After reading our pages for this week, and reflecting on my own songwriting and reading about other songwriters it helped me see again why I love this so much! I ended up really relating to a lot of what was stated in these first 50 pages. Where I am from which is called Bloomfield Hills, everyone their seems to be living in their own bubble. Everyone calls it The Bloomfield Bubble. Not joking its a real thing. I’m sure you have heard about my area that I is a very wealthy area snd everyone is materialistic and rude. That is true for those selected few but, other than the few exceptions the rest of us are just like everyone else. One of the big things that is a “normal” situation that happens after you graduate from high school is that you

Why do I like writing so much? It could be the way the words play in my mind like a movie or the way the characters shape themselves in my head. It could be how I react to the character’s death the same way an audience reacts in a play. It could be how it takes me sometimes hours to come up with one line, but one line that is perfect. A writer is like an artist to a painting or the director of a movie except without the paintbrush or video camera. Writing takes me somewhere else; sometimes it’s a beach or a bench at a park. After hours of brainstorming, writing and editing I feel pride flow through my

Society today is quick to judge and state what is wrong and what is acceptable by the public. While some differences between Spelling Matters and Use Your Own Words are obvious, the similarities are relevant. Anne Trubek says that perhaps it is time to change or alter grammar rules to match the current generation and culture. We should advance our guidelines about what is proper and improper along with what is happening right now with the language. While Mikita Brottman says, “bad spelling can be a godsend—a way of weeding out those who are thoughtless and inattentive to detail” (p. 219).

While reading Discovering the Power of Language by Malcolm X I found myself questioning why he was in prison. What could of Malcolm X done to have gotten locked up. Then my thoughts drifted off to my friend (who is also in prison) wondering if he is ok. Will he come out of the system differently. Then how have I changed how is 2015 maria different from 2012 Maria at that moment I realized I was not even reading anymore so, I made myself continue reading. Soon I got to the part where he began explaining his process of learning new words and how he rewrote the dictionary and I started wondering how bad his hand hurt that night and if he got carpal tunnel or arthritis later in his life.

I’d always enjoyed writing but I’d never been so vocal about it. For me, it happened quietly. My notebooks lie scattered over my bedroom floor; they had no place at the lunch table. And my writing survived on my acknowledgments alone, I couldn’t even imagine letting some else read it. This was due in part to my own self-doubt: I was embarrassed of my poems that never rhymed and my short action stories that never seemed to have any plot. But I

I’m not a notable writer, nor have I really wanted to join the writing industry. However, I have been interested in other people’s writing. From their deep meanings, content, and different formats/styles. It’s a wondrous creation made from within our imagination and experiences. It has inspired me to write too. I’ve been writing most of my life that it has become a necessity. And now from my past experiences with writing, I try my best to improve my skills as a writer for the future.

Intended for people like me, my writing aims to ordinary readers, such as students or anyone who reads for pleasure.

I am Ryder Anderson I lived in the Northeast of the United States with my family. We lived on a small farm in upstate New York. As a young man I was not only a farmer, but a young craftsman of furniture and followed into home building. It gave me a great trade and work ethic. Where also the farm is where I learned how to work with my hands and how to fix things around the house and farm, which than lead to my interest in steel and welding and where I established a construction and Furniture business. Which led me to move to the big city to get more work. I was from a middle – upper class family, we weren’t driving. The new car around us we didn’t have a radio for the longest time. Also we didn’t have an electricity until later in life so we

Good Evening Everyone! I am McCall Radavich with USA Today. Although I am currently located in New York, I was born and raised in Arizona. At a very young age, I found my passion in writing and photography. I have literally been writing my story for as long as I can remember. When it came time for college, I chose one of the best journalism schools in the United States, the University of Iowa. I started small, taking pictures for the school’s newspaper, The Daily Iowan. I soon worked my way up to being an Opinions Writer, then a Metro Reporter, and finally my senior year, an editor. After graduating with a double major in journalism and geography in 2005, I got a yearlong internship with National Geographic. You know how you look back on moments of your life and think, that’s when it all changed? Well, that was it for me. That was my moment, the year I found myself. Writing isn’t an easy thing. Actually, I would say writing is the hardest thing a person can do, putting your self on display for any and all to see. Writing is the truth, and the truth hurts. I had always thought that was what I did when I wrote, tell the truth, but that wasn’t the case. I hadn’t learned how to write without boundaries until that summer, when I had no other option. I hadn’t known how to write like everything was on the line, because I had never had anything to lose. Now, it’s the only way I write. It is the only way I can. When my year was up, I didn’t know what to do with

Every word written or read is a chance to better yourself or someone else. Our words carry an enormous significance with them. Even if a person doesn’t enjoy reading or writing, they can not deny that fact. I bring this up because reading and writing has shaped me into the person I am today. So it is no surprise that I am willing to rant about how great reading and writing can be.

My friends call me Sonja (the “j” is pronounced like a “y”). I currently reside near “The Villages” in Central Florida. I ‘m a native of N.E. Ohio who is the mother of three and the grandmother of six. I enjoy spending quality time with my grandchildren: going to the beach, bowling, boating and attending concerts, drag races, and car shows with my husband. Currently I’m pursuing my first Bachelor’s degree in Human Services with about 40 weeks to go, after obtaining my AS in Computer Programming and Analysis from Valencia College. I have always thought I was very analytical until I read about literary analysis and our readings for this week. Thus, I hope I’m not the only one trembling in their shoes, as it has been a few years since I

I am also beginning to realize the beauty that comes with life’s uncertainties and possibilities. There are many alluring places to see, people to meet, and experiences to be enjoyed in life. Because I am so young, there are countless amounts that I do not know and a myriad that I am unsure about. Yet, there are a few facets I am positive about: I love to write, I am infinitely grateful for how fortunate I am, and Eckerd College is the right school for me.
