Writing Is Good - Writing

While writing might seem like a simple task, it can be a daunting task for a lot of people. Sometimes it can be hard to express the ideas in your mind in the words of a paper. This results in a disconnect with what a writer may actually think. A great writer is one that can transform his thoughts into words perfectly. This is a craft that takes many years to perfect, which is why writing is troublesome for a lot of us. Many students also have had bad experiences with writing. Maybe they had a teacher that didn’t try to support them and their writing. They might not have ever gotten the help they needed and may feel that they are in a hole where their writing can’t get better. At this point, they just accept that their writing will never get better.

At this point in my life I find myself in an interesting predicament regarding my attitudes toward reading and writing; more so towards reading. Years ago I used to love reading books for pleasure but nowadays I find myself reading things that little to no effort to digest. This includes the very basic posts on facebook expressing one’s opinion on something or articles and threads on reddit discussing topics I find intriguing. Perhaps it’s the severe senioritis that has overcome me as I enter my last semester at Chapman University. As I’ve gotten lazier I can see it start to reflect in my everyday life. Deep down I still love to read but I rarely find myself getting truly invested into the action unless it relates to something I am very

There are actually quite of few books that I have enjoyed reading, most of them being lower reading level sports books. Although I liked those books I could never bring myself to read them outside of school, that's just the type of relationship I have with reading. It’s not that I don’t like reading but if I’m not required to read something chances are I won’t. I do think as I’m getting

No matter how much you enjoy or do not enjoy reading and writing we all have a story how it has impacted out life. Literacy has a big impact on us all, if we didn’t have it we would be lost. We wouldn’t be able to text our friends and family to stay in touch. We wouldn’t have anything to do with social media. We would lose entertainment. Those are just the basics of why reading and writing has a big impact on our lives. Majority people have a deeper more meaningful experience with reading and/or writing. I personally have never been the best at writing because I have issues with grammar. I have never enjoyed reading because I am a very slow reader and have a hard time getting into books. But I too have a reason to love reading and writing. One reason I began to enjoy

Throughout my years of schooling, I have become ambivalent about reading and writing. I have struggled in school to make myself enjoy writing. I didn’t mind reading as much, as long as it was to my interest. It has differed throughout the years I have been in school. Some years I have enjoyed both, reading and writing, and other years I have not liked either. Getting myself to enjoy reading and writing has been quite the adventure.

Ever since a young age I’ve enjoyed reading. My mother even read to me while I was in the womb. When I started kindergarten I was so eager to learn how to read. After I learned how to read my reading level was always significantly higher than the others in my class. I was reading chapter books in first grade. Similarly I was very excited when I learned how to write. Ever since then I have enjoyed writing and do it in my free time. I have been told and

Reading is really great, but for me, I do not like writing as much as reading. Many people enjoy writing over reading, except I am complete opposite. When I sit down and read a good book, I can read for hours. Writing on the other hand, just does not come naturally. Books like, American Sniper, The Monuments Men, and Unbroken really got me interested in reading books about war and history. I like to write, if it is a topic I can write about. If I get an easy topic, that I can brainstorm great idea’s.

I have never enjoyed reading or writing, I mean, unless it’s for pizza or a prize. Which is usually the only time I would read a book. Writing on the other hand, I enjoy a little bit more than reading. I usually do pretty good with essays. I wish I could find a way to like reading. I see some people read all the time and I automatically assume they’re smart so it would be cool to like reading and people assuming I am smart too. I also get told that reading makes you smarter and I definitely need that.

Since school started I have grown to love reading. In the process of writing a writer

That being said, the fact that I do not enjoy reading books specifically does not mean I do not like reading in general. In the past months, I took a liking to short horror stories published by experienced writers on the Internet. Off the top of my head, the last one I read was a multi-part sci-fi novel about the empty

I despise being assigned and forced to read books or stories I am not interested in. At my age I have expanded the genres that entice me but anything written pre civil rights movement is hard for me to enjoy. I think it’s the way they are written or even the word usage but to be put simply, it’s a bore. Around the time I discovered my love for books I also found a love for writing. I loved being able to use my words to express my feels, but then I started college and my love for writing began to vanish with each semester. I have also found that the time I have for reading is now limited to school work and bed time stories with my son. I now look forward to the breaks I have between semesters where I can lose myself in a couple of books and actually enjoy and appreciate a good story. I love the feeling I get when I get so lost in a book that when I wake up the next morning I have to remind myself of the world I actually live in. I hope that one day, maybe after I finish my career as a student, that I will once again find a love in writing.

This for me was a very hard question to answer due to the fact that its an opinion, and there are very many types of writing. Different structures, ideas, metaphors, and concepts. You have to remember to ask, whether the writing in itself is good in my point of view or not, has to answer to my specific guidelines which in your case might not be the same. The first and foremost of the many guidelines is how the author set's up the introductory sentence or better yet, the hook. If the author for example, is writing a cook-book, his first sentence should be appealing to the sense of taste. For example, If you are writing on how to bake a chocolate cake, you can sound appealing by saying, it will almost feel like you added a hint of heaven

At the moment I don’t really like reading at all. I face the same issues I faced in the seventh grade. I simply have no time to read books, I still continue to have an overload of schoolwork with the exception that do not play soccer anymore. With all he schoolwork I see reason in

All throughout my years of schooling, I’ve had just about, one paper that was about one page long, due every year. My papers never had to be more than one page in length. Therefore, I did not have to do much writing or do many essays. Surely not enough to remember any of the assignments. Writing has never been something I enjoyed doing, so I never bothered to many any memories of my writing experiences. I did not think it was necessary to remember any of them since I only had to do them to get a grade. The only writing experience I remember was the first assignment I had in this English 100 class about a writing experience. All week long, I sat there thinking about what to write about, but nothing came to mind as a topic. Then, one thing came to mind, but it was so very vague, I could not write the length that was needed for the assignment. I could only think of a few sentences to write for it. After sitting for a few moments longer, I thought, how about I write about how difficult it was for me to write this essay before it was due.

Writing is not just as simple as putting words down on a document or a piece of paper, it is a process. Within this intricate process are steps that involve more than just writing, such as critical thinking, planning, and editing. Using these steps has not only helped me when planning an essay but also when composing one. Throughout this course, I have managed to improve many skills and gain a lot of strengths, but I still possess some weaknesses. Overall, I believe my strengths have definitely outgrown these weaknesses and have led to a better, more high-quality writing process which leads to improved essays.
