When I first started this project, I really had no idea where I was going to start. I know that I love to write, I love to create characters and make them come to life. First, I thought of what I was going to do for my support piece and originally, I was going to create a non-fiction story, but it quickly turned into a poem.

My grammar was also an issue and now I receive fewer errors from instructors. Overall, I grew as a student, researcher and writer. I know that my time at SNHU has done nothing but improved everything I wanted to improve. Even though I still have issues with writing, the difference since I started school is
