We are halfway through our semester; it is so hard to believe. I have grown some as a writer but still have some issues to work on. Every time I write a paper I always have “muscle” issues. I really need to look into help so that I may better that aspect of my papers.
I am actually feeling pretty good about my writing’s so far. I thought I was much worse at writing than I have shown to be. I really think it does help that Stephanie breaks things down. The way she has assignments that lead to our first draft, and then we can work on our paper some more verses just saying here is the topic, write your paper.
My imagery writing is definitely getting better as show in this sentence used in my Travel Essay: “The pure scenery is like a canvas which is re-painted as the seasons change.” I really have to think “outside” of the box to write good imagery. It is really hard but in the end when you have a beautiful piece of writing it makes it all worth the effort.
I need to spend more time writing on my papers. I have home issues that make it hard to find time to sit and write. If I had more time to work on my paper or even go to the studio this would help me out tremendously. All in all I feel I have done pretty well but having the time and help will be a great benefit to my writing.

Yes, Colleen, your sensory details in this last piece were excellent. I can tell you're working on them, and they are making your papers shine.
ReplyDeleteIf you get a chance, I'd love for you to attend either one of the Bling workshops in The Studio. I think you'd get a lot out of it.
