Myself as a Writer
When i was a little freshman in Mrs. Colonel's English class, i was terrible at writing. I still got A's but that was because she graded easier. When i was a freshman i struggled with MLA format and editing mostly. Now i understand the MLA format for the most part, i just sometimes forget about adding a header or double spacing. I've also become more comfortable with having others edit my papers for me. I used to be uncomfortable, but now i understand that their criticism is to help me, not make fun of me. I get frustrated with writing about things that i have no interest in. I'm much more comfortable when its something that interests me. When i don't care about what I'm writing, it really shows in my paper. The part of the writing process that i don't like is brainstorming and having to write it down. I can brainstorm in my head so there's no need for me to write it out. To sum it all up, i like and am good at writing papers as long as i care about the topic. Otherwise you can see how much effort that i really put into the paper.
