Recommended: School essay procrastination

When it comes to writing I have the hardest time in just getting started. I’m a horrible procrastinator and I overthink about my writing before I have even started a sentence. I worry that I will fail to get my point across or sometimes that I have a point at all. I worry that my writing is just a stream of consciousness on paper and that it will confuse any reader unfortunate enough to stumble across my meandering words. For this assignment I ended up using the double-entry journal note taking style. Of the few techniques mentioned, this one seemed geared towards my key issues. I copied the questions asked on one side and started laying out my answers and observations out on the other side. I then further broke down these answers into bullet

Growing up I have never found myself a connoisseur of reading, writing, or just the subject of English. Matter of fact I could consider my appeal to be quiet irritated at the matter altogether. It was not something I had found any solace or escape in. Going through school like every other student, I’m forced to take it. I have had to write paper after paper, every time the same effect happens to me. I can’t seem to find the words that are requested of me to put down on paper. I have a problem explaining the things that run through my head. Its better if I just get my hands in it and take care of it myself. That is one of the problems with writing is that you cannot put you hand on it; it is verbal, it is inspirational,

Personal Narrative: My Writing Process
652 Words | 2 Pages
One of the many important skills I have learned over the years is to start my writing process with planning. I do this by developing a list of ideas I could write about. For example, when planning my narrative paper I wrote out a list of possible stories I could talk about. I knew the narrative paper had to be around five pages so I tried to come up with a story that involves good details so I would not bore the reader. I made up a list of about five or six stories I had in mind and tried to think about how I could talk about that specific story in my mind. In order to remember the ideas I had, I would make notes next to my story topics. I try to make my plans and notes very neat and organized to avoid confusion. Planning out my paper before writing helps me

“Writing is an exploration. You start from nothing and learn as you go” (BrainyQuote). It is shown in this quote that when you begin writing you know nothing, you have to learn and develop a writing style as you write more, it takes time to become a good writer. Throughout my many years of writing, my writing styles have changed greatly. In middle school I had never written an essay based on a book. This year I have gone from being utterly confused on how to write an essay about a book, to having a full understanding of what I’m writing. This year is the year that I have grown more than any other, all because of my teacher, Mrs. Johnson. She has helped me become the best writer I can be this year. In this essay I will reflect on how my writing

Personal Narrative: My Reflection As A Writer

As I sit here and ponder over the last semester, I smile remembering what my thoughts were before I started. I was excited thinking about joining this semester, noticing that I had English 111 as one of my courses. This will be a breeze I thought. Writing and I go together hand in hand well, and I bet this will be one of my favorite courses that I’ll ace with flying colors. I’ve always enjoyed writing, but I think that was because I didn’t realize what all goes into writing. I have always been homeschooled and never had to write very many essays, although I loved writing. It all changed when I joined this semester and got to write three entirely different essays. I remember almost being in tears, looking at the highlights, when my first essay came back. I smile now, realizing that I never realized all the small little details that are easily overlooked that goes into writing. I don’t think I could have gotten through this semester without “The Little Sea Gull” handbook and the patience and help of Mrs. Wisdom.

Personal Narrative: My Way Of Writing
471 Words | 1 Pages
I believe my way of writing is a mix of free style writing with a slight structured sense while expressing one thought onto paper. I would go about finding a main topic that I would like to write about and then layout the foundation of how I want the writing to form; this helps me envision my writing coming to life. This type of method is something I always do in order ensure I don’t lose my thoughts that I have previously came up with to go along with it. Over time I’ve learned that I wrote in the way I was thought in high school. This was an extremely strict way that doesn’t show the other forms of writing. This led to not me discovering my form of writing for a while. My train form of writing has changed from a strict concrete manner of

Personal Narrative: My Life As A Writer

My story as a writer has constantly changed as I've gotten older and experienced new writing situations in my job field in the military. When I was younger, of course I had to write for school like everyone else but I also used to write short stories in my free time, that I would keep to myself. I enjoyed writing in my free time more because it allowed me the freedom to write stories on what I wanted and at my pace and it was like a hobby. As I got older my writing then started to become solely work related and I stopped writing in my free time. This was a negative and a positive for me because in the military I had to learn how to write based off who I was writing an email or a report to, which made me think a bit harder on the words I would

Personal Narrative: My Writing
829 Words | 2 Pages
I got a C on my first chemistry research paper. ‘It’s awkwardly written,’ my teacher scrawled on the paper in red ink.‘Most of your information is correct but it’s hard to read and harder to understand.’ I was furious. My writing was great as far as I was concerned. I aced all my English essays and she thought she could tell me my writing was awkward? The problem was clearly her. In my anger, I showed the paper to my brother- my brother the math and science whiz- and complained endlessly. “Well,” he said delicately “It is awkward. You’re writing too rigidly. You need to change the way you think.We all know you’re artistically creative. Now it’s time for you to be scientifically creative.”

How Writing Changed My Life
617 Words | 2 Pages
When I am out, I observe the world around me. My biggest fear is not having anything to write about, so I am always looking for material. I watch people, I talk to strangers, I read as much as I can. Every conversation, mistake, heartbreak, painting, and novel are stored inside of me. I pull from this place when I am writing. Sometimes it’s uncomfortable, but I always leave this place with a better understanding of myself and my writing. If I had not accepted writing as my passion, I would be living life on a surface level. I have struggled with overthinking my entire life, but when I am writing I indulge my bad habit. While writing, I feel safe imagining every possible

Essay About Myself as a Writer
501 Words | 2 Pages
When I sit down to write, I must do so in a clean, well-organized, and well-lit area. The space must be free from distractions, such as the television or radio, so that I am able to focus and gather my thoughts. I like to begin my writings similar to the way William Stafford says he starts, "To get started I will accept anything that occurs to me." Writing down any thought that will help support and provoke more thoughts and ideas. When my thoughts become cloudy, I like to rise from my seat and walk around speaking out ideas to myself. I find this practice helps to jumpstart my brain activity and clear my foggy mind.

Challenges Of Writing As A Writer
484 Words | 1 Pages
Writing is one of the most effective tools we have for learning and expressing what we know. It stands to reason that writing gives us an opportunity to communicate and connect with others. It is a useful and, moreover, effective way of promoting self-reflection and personal development. However, difficulties with writing lead to significant barriers in education and other life pursuits. In fact, I am very familiar with the challenges of writing as a student. But one of my biggest problem in writing is lack of concentration. Without sufficient attention to writing, I am not able to put my opinions on paper. There are plenty of reasons why I am losing my focus. Firstly, I may not be too healthy and I may not be getting enough sleep. At times,
