Creative destruction

Writing is like facing your fears. It scares you more than anything, but once you finally get passed the irrationality of fear everything seems effortless. Writing is just a fear; it’s something that seems so difficult to grasp. The closer it is to you personally, the harder it seems to overcome. Once you finally find that one thought, your whole story is driven and it seems almost impossible to stop. My writing is also like falling in love at times. Slow at first, but gets better once you get

Reflective Essay of this Course The English skills I am walking away from this course are very tremendous. Whether it be my writing skills improving or just learning simple English things that I didn’t have a firm grab on or I never even learn. Being a freshman in college this has been one of my more useful English class because of all the actual useful things we learned and there wasn’t anything nonsense or nothing that I would not use in the future. My first essay in this class was the creed essay

As shown by my portfolio, my writing has progressed in various ways through this quarter. In some of my first writings, such as early journals and test essays, I didn’t use the compelling adjectives that are able to paint pictures in the reader’s head. As a starting point, I used bland adjectives that would not be able to grab the reader’s attention. For a simple example, I used “good” and “better” in my A Raisin in the Sun essay when I could have wrote more effective words, such as “exceptional”

The class of UWP 23 was one of the most important classes for me in order to graduate from UC Davis, that is why the preparation for this midterm. In preparation for this midterm, I have read multiple documents provided by Professor Demchuk and the UWP faculty. I also prepare a framework for the midterm, utilizing the resources provided in order to prove my point of view. How many preparation however, might not be able to make me ready for the midterm.

During the last semester of my senior year of high school, I enrolled in Tupelo High School's Advanced Placement Dual Credit English IV course. Ultimately, my time in Advanced English provided me with many challenges, but also helped me recognize high points as well as my strengths. These experiences helped mold me into the writer I am today. Senior English at Tupelo High School had a reputation of being arduous as well as mentally and, at times, physically exhausting. Within the first week of

Mohit Chhapru Prof. Dale Ireland ENGL 3003 25 August 2017 The initial attempt which I gave at clearing the WST exam was quite an exuberant experience. A confident me wrote an excellent piece which was all according to me nothing but excellent. But a drastic result of having a non-competent essay came as a shocking result. Thus, while taking this class I hoped to improve my writing skills not only to be good in general writing but also hone my skills in presenting ideas as a graduate student. The

During the time in which I joined the university to begin my bachelor, there was not a first composition class. I never studied writing in a separate class. So, I immediately started reading literature. I immediately began reading some of William Wordsworth pieces.

Taylor Sampson interviewed Jay Welsh, current

The quality of my writing has been very good so far. I have managed to score full points on some of the writing assignments.

The paper flowed nicely and I understood what the prompt was asking for. The rewrite of the Washington v. Trump case came at a close second. There was lots of information to be covered in that case. It was probably the most difficult writing assignment
