    Writing Etiquette While reading the letters written by Abigail and John Adams, I noticed that they were written differently than if someone from today’s society had written them. They were written well, clearly thought out and pleasantly worded. There may have been an occasional misspelled word; however, despite that, it is obvious that both Adams were highly intelligent. It is a shame that people today do not give the same careful attention to their written communications. Writing properly has become a lost art.…

Instead of being taught how I could improve my essays in high school, the teachers were only worried about the 5-paragraph essay format. With that being said, Dr. Rutledge mentioned how he hated that format and would give us an F if we used it.…

    Contrary to my reading, my writing has undergone some notable improvements. Improvement in my writing did not manifest itself in the way I expected it to at the beginning of this year. Over the course of this year, my grammar, sentence structure variation, elimination of passive voice and ‘to be’ verbs, and overall writing quality have all improved. I even managed to write a decent poem and attempt to copy the vignette style of Cisneros. But all that made an inconsequential difference compared to enhancement generated from using the ICE method.…

In the beginning of the school year, my writing fell short of my expectations, but as I continued to work and learn the principles of writing, I have written papers that I am proud to say are mine. Among the aspects of my writing I have improved, the best strives are seen within my my counter arguments and overall strength and coherency of my papers. To begin, when looking at a paper I wrote in August on necessity of first drafts, there were large gaps in my elaboration, bringing concerns as to whether I was arguing and proving a point or merely summarizing what Lamott, the author of the article, originally said. When attempting to argue my evidence, I stated,…
