Recommended: Writing skills reflection

I have learned from you that as writers, we need to stop time to time to refresh our minds, and reflect on what we are writing. Then, when we go back to write with new energies that will help us to correct grammars, incomplete thoughts, add new ideas, and delete unnecessary information in our papers. My writing style has a little difference compare to you. I usually create mind map to brain storm my ideas on the topic, and my outline will base on the mind map. I don’t know why I rarely take small breaks while writing because I scare that I will lose my thoughts. Therefore, I usually spend many hours to write my paper without stopping. After reading your writing, I am changing my writing habits that I need to take small breaks because taking

    Even when I do choose my own topic, I analyze each sentence as I compose an essay instead of simply writing the paper. In Honors Writing, Mrs. Templin told me to sit for at least twenty minutes, with no distractions, and type everything that comes to mind. Type now, edit later. I still struggle with this method because procrastination is another huge weakness of mine, and editing takes more time than writing. My philosophy used to be that if I could write a paper beautifully the first time, edits were unnecessary. After receiving grades I did not like, however, I realized the importance of taking the time to fully revise my writing. Now, editing is the fun part of writing because the writing is, for the most part, finished. Few activities are more satisfying than finding that misplaced comma, misspelled word, or misplaced modifier. It can get complicated when I have to change, move, or delete entire sentences, but I would rather fix a few sentences than write an entire paper the night before it is due. The “type now, edit later” method is significantly easier than my previous writing methods, because I could put my thoughts down quickly. Releasing thoughts is, of course, the first and most important step in constructing an essay. I still struggle sometimes to stop analyzing sentences, but I am seeing

  • Reflective Essay: My Writing Experience

    817 Words  | 2 Pages

    Writing for me has always been a love and hate relationship since I could remember. Depending on the subject matter that I was writing about I would enjoy it because it suited my style or I loathed it because that specific style was uninteresting and boring to me. Learning certain writing formats were absolutely the worst part about writing when I first started learning in high school. As time pushed on and I grew older I began to develop an appreciation for writing that I did not have before; which is what led me to taking Writing 101 as my first full-fledged college course. I began this course with minimal writing experience because of what I failed to retain before, but now I am a stronger writer than I could have imagined with new skill sets that enhance my professional portfolio.

However, throughout this course, it made me realize that I should write everything on my mind, when writing a paper, just like I would in my notes.
