Writing And Writing : The Importance Of Writing

I have more fears than confidence when it comes to writing, for me writing is very nerve racking because of all the multitasking my brain has to do. Therefor, I do not write a lot, the only time I would write is if a teacher assigns an essay about a topic we have been working on. I have never really written for my enjoyment mostly it is just for academic reasons in all honesty.

I have been reading and writing for most of my life. It all started way back in middle school. Most of my writings ended up being persuasive or narrative pieces. I would just sit down and pour out stories about myself onto pages like I was talking to a huge audience that was, for some reason, super interested in me. I remember in 7th grade I loved writing because I just got to talk about my life and all the things that happened to me. Whether the story was embarrassing to me, or were big milestones in my 13-year old life I always had a place to share a piece of me. If I couldn’t think of anything, I could just make something up and no one would know it wasn’t true. I would write about my crazy family and all the dysfunctional vacations we would go on and it didn’t even feel like an assignment to me. It was easy. It was a place that I could really express myself and I loved it. This sparked an interest in literature and writing that was carried out through my future in different forms. Components of all the writing and reading experiences I had, still show up in my writing style now, even if I’m not intentionally adding them in. But I’ll talk about that later, now for the next stop on my writing journey.

There is nothing that has had a bigger impact on my life than learning to read and write. I remember being in elementary school and the teacher emphasizing that reading and writing is fundamental. I didn’t know what that meant or why she kept repeating that over again. As I started to grow older I slowly understood a part of it. It began by observing my father every morning, he would buy the Spanish newspaper and would read it. One day I asked him if I could read the newspaper, I knew I couldn’t read Spanish but I was curious. I recall breaking up the words and putting them together like I learned in school. To only realize that Spanish is phonetically written. From there I learned that there is an important connection in Spanish and English that is important just as reading and writing in my life. There are many types of outcomes that I gained from learning to read and write. Such as being able to expand my knowledge, observing how communication is interacted in reading and writing, and appreciating the creativity of it.

I took me a long time to realize how important being able to articulate my thoughts in writing can be. I’d like to think of myself as a good speaker not a writer. For as long as I can remember I’ve always been able get across what I want and what I intended to say clearly through speaking to individuals or groups alike. My ability to speak to an audience clearly and concisely has gotten me to where I am today in the military. Up until recently I never need to further develop my inadequate ability to write.

As a student. I felt very uneasy before reading it knowing that the level of difficulty would be unimaginable. Though, within the “prequel,” I was already mesmerized by the beautiful writing and kept me captive. Read with an open mind! This Fleeting World also encourages and sets up a wide variety of debates and thought experiments. Which if read within a group of students would be very lively. Thus, audience is meant for those willing to learn big things in little time. Also adding graphics of maps, illustrations of tools and quotes that become more and more relevant the more is read. It’s even better to be able to read the chapter, look at the pictures and not be left with any questions visually. A great summer read for many. A piece made

Writing in college is often a huge transition for incoming freshman that do not have a very good writing background. I came from a high school where education was not taken very seriously, and the teachers did not take pride in their teaching. My grammar and punctuation skills were weak, and the whole thought of writing a four to six page essay was a very stressful thought. At the beginning of the semester I had already learned more in writing then what I had learned in my whole four years of high school. I have passed essays two and three and have started to see my writing skills progress as the semester goes on. The progress I have made throughout the semester is why I feel I should pass this course. I have learned proper grammar, developing paragraphs, and my incorporation of sources has improved to back up my writing.

To many of my school classmates writing came as second nature; to me not so much. It was clear that my weak relationship with writing was going to be an issue if I didn’t get a grip on it. Writing has constructed many obstacles in my life, but with the right words and guidance I continue to overcome the language.

Writing is one of the most important skills you can have in life. Being able to construct high-quality papers, among other things, is key. Not only to get a point across, but to accurately give information, or some just like to do it for fun. I write so that people can easily understand what the point is that I'm trying to get across. There are so many different forms of writing that people can utilize however they want to, whether it's for research purposes or for creative purposes. Being able to write well is a skill that can be utilized daily and can is very beneficial whether you have to write something for school, to write a resume and to type something up for a job.

Jordan Rosenfeld wrote, “Perfectionism instills fears that you will never live up to a standard set in your mind or one that’s been set for you by others.” This quote accurately describes my relationship with writing. A significant part of my fears and apprehensions about writing relate to creating that perfect paper. I consume too much time judging if what I have written is good enough for the reader, as well as for myself based on my standards. It is important that I recognize how the value in expressing my ideas in writing could potentially influence others viewpoints. Thus, awarding me the ability to create something I can admire as well. While I have no difficulty in the writing required in my career, ultimately the goal is to become

Throughout the course of this semester we have learned various writing techniques that have helped me grow and improve as a writer. By acquiring the necessary skills for writing from this class and pushing myself to further improve on these skills, I can now apply my knowledge to future courses that I may take. For instance, while I may not be required to do the same project, I can use the same principles that we learned from units, such as, argument analysis or revision to complete another assignment. While I might have had some experience with the lessons from this class, I still had room to improve and the evidence for this can be seen throughout my course work. In this essay, I will present several artifacts as evidence to prove how I applied

As a student who has now been in college for a semester, I think that writing exemplifies how well you do in college. Others may argue that writing does not play a big role in determining if one does well in college or not. As I stand by my opinion of writing playing a big role in how well someone does in college, there are many things you still have to do over your years in college.

All throughout my public school education, the majority of my writing consisted of persuasive essays. While I have grown to become confident in my ability to produce this type of writing, when I started college, I felt lost writing research papers. The steps to writing a persuasive essay is so ingrained in my mind that it was hard to break out of that habit when my assignments required a different method. The only significant research paper that I wrote was during junior year of highschool. However, it was only a three and a half page assignment. I definitely felt my confidence waver when writing the research paper for this class. I feel like high school didn’t prepare me enough for the amount of writing that is expected at the college

I have a love-hate relationship with writing. One of the many reason I hate writing is because I worry so much about my punctuation. I could be writing an amazing paper, but when I go back and find a thousand punctuation errors, I try to switch up the writing to make it flow more. When the topic is relatable I excel in the assignment, but if it is not relatable it takes me some time to start or find a connection I can use as a building block. One of the many things I love about writing is the freedom to express my ideas without feeling self-conscious. For example, I love writing spoken word poems, but finding the courage to actually say them aloud in front of an audience scares me a bit. Another negative for me is that I have difficulty expounding on simple topics that the teacher wants me to write more on. I could write a few sort sentences and answer the

Reading and writing are both important; you can’t have one without the other. They are skills that are increased constantly due to little things that most times are not noticed. Whether it is from a book to a poem, there will always be a way that it helps out your school performance. Reading and writing in general only helps absorb information, and enhance leisure or school related writing tasks. It has also made life itself so much easier because reading and writing are so beneficial for school and for life. How much you read and write today, will somehow affect your future job, family, position, or even your salary.
