My Favorite Writer

Superior Essays
Growing up writing has always been an important part of my life and for that reason, some of my fondest memories of my childhood were when I would write with my father. He would teach me to write using different genres of writing and in doing so I became a proficient writer. I always enjoyed writing because it was the way that I could illustrate my creativity in words, the way for me to express my ideas, and the way for me to get lost in time doing something I enjoyed. My favorite form of writing was fiction. I was always a fan of writing fiction because I considered myself to be a creative person and my creativity was something I loved to show off in my work.
The truth is I wish everything that I just wrote was true, but it is not. Nobody in my family, including myself, has ever enjoyed writing or has written by free will. I went through school being a substandard writer because I had no interest in writing. I always told people I enjoyed writing because it made me seem smart, but my writing reflected that of a person with an IQ score of 69. I could easily say I hated writing because it was something I have always been forced to do with no ability to apply my own creative touch to my work,

I based it of two people I knew their names where Jasmine and Nick. I just took their relationship and sugar coated it. Now that I look back at it, I feel bad for making fun of their relationship but at the same time I do not because it was funny. I portrayed Jasmine and Nick as people that were mirror images of each other. They where both pale, dark haired, and nerdy. The story centered around their goal of being voted favorite couple and they struggled to achieve their goal. The lesson learned was you can not win something if people do not know you or like you. In reality I ended up writing their biography but no one knew that so I just stood with the idea that it was

    The Real Writer, says that enjoying writing is more of an “agonistic” type of thing. This means that it is not something you are obsessed with, it’s a love-hate relationship. This is important because it emphasizes that people don’t usually LOVE writing, it is more of a fire that burns inside them. “I believe that I write because I am driven to do so—driven by a will to write (Allen 25).” Basically, writing is not some kind of “gift from the gods” or natural talent.…

    As I grew older, I started to dislike reading because it just seemed boring to me to read the books or novels we had to read in school. Although, I did enjoy to read my own personal books that I checked out from the library, reading was just something I didn’t have much interest for as I did for writing. I greatly enjoyed writing. Most of the writing I have done, whether it be academic or informal, has always had a touch of a personal experience and emotion. I have loved the feeling of calculating thoughts and getting them down on paper.…

    Writing has always been a pastime for me. When I was younger, I loved writing stories just for fun or to have something to share with my family and friends. I remember being able to sit down for hours on end and write full pages worth of writing. Whether it made any sense, had proper grammar, and even if it was legible didn’t matter to me. It was writing that I could truly say was my own and be proud of.…

    For as long as I can recall, I have been a creator. Before I even received my first essay prompts in school, as a child I already crafted stories to be transcribed by my father, or scribbled down by my own hands, or played out by toy dolls. I never even realized my natural inclination to writing until suddenly, around the third grade or so, my teachers and peers began noticing this peculiar aspect of myself. My essays were read aloud to the class, the teachers instructed me to assist my peers who struggled with grammar, the librarian gave me personal recommendations on which books were a satisfying read - sure enough, my aspiration to be a writer had been diagnosed.…

    My experience as a writer has stretched through just about my entire life time. As a four year old kid I had started kindergarten and my writing career had took off fast! When my teacher first started to teach us how to write, we started with learning all of the letters and writing all the small simple words that young kids do when we are first taught to read and write, such as cat, dog, cow and pig. At this stage I had thought that reading and writing was the best thing in the world because they were so new and strange to me! It was just one of those things that I wanted to learn more about everyday as a young child.…
