My Strengths And Weaknesses As A Writer

Improved Essays
Like all writers, I have my strengths and weaknesses when I write. A few of the weaknesses I have include not connecting my essays with my thesis, adding useless details, small spelling errors, and not having enough evidence. My strengths include the facts that most of my grammar and spelling is correct, my conclusion and thesis are well done, and I hardly mess up MLA format. All these essays show the weakness and strengths I have as a writer. First, my research paper shows a lot of my strengths and weaknesses. I picked a topic about the fashion industry not being offensive. I decided to start my discussion on fashion by explaining some history on clothing and fashion. Next, I talked about the clothes that people find offensive. I continued

    Everyone has their weaknesses; Superman’s weakness was kryptonite, Akele’s was his heel, and the Wicked Witch of the West’s was water. Since I am part of “everyone” I have weaknesses, too. The key is creating goals to turning my weaknesses into strengths. Out of all the goals I could have come up with, three seem to be the best. One goal I have for this year is to write my paragraphs as fluently as possible.…

    I wrote one “source-based argumentative essay” in high school: my final essay from sophomore English. The guidelines were to write a four to eight page paper on any topic of your choice, but the thesis of the paper had to come across clearly. At the time, my personal goals were to write about something no one else would, as well as get an A in the class. As a future collegiate writer, I feel as though I have the habits and potential strengths to be successful, but my biggest weakness is that I do not know how to write a professional essay and I am a reluctant editor.…

    I am also good at being organized so when I, for example, lay out an argument in an introduction, I will stick to it until the end. As for weaknesses, the main ones are that I almost never read over a paper after writing it and, unless I have to, I never write multiple drafts. This is mostly due to time constraints and my final product often suffers for it. I have gotten better on this front, though, so it definitely isn’t as big a problem as it used to be. Another problem I have is that I struggle trying to come up with how to begin a paper, with the exception of a paper in high school about why the North won the Civil War where I began with “Contrary to what many southerners might believe, the South shall NOT rise again.”…

    My experiences with academic writing are with taking classes which require essays such as persuasive essays and expository essays in classes such as: Understanding Art, Communication, Humanities and even Rhet 1302. For example in Humanities we would watch films such as “Blade Runner” and explain the certain aspect in the movie such as the aspect of concealment and the truth. So I would correlate that with my thesis which was in the film “Blade Runner”, attempting to conceal your identity as a replicant only leads to the truth about your identity being revealed. I believe that my strengths are as a writer is being able to provide sound details from the source and transforming those details to fit my thesis. My weaknesses in writing are mostly…

    As a writer I work best in quiet places where I have the ability to write with no interruptions. My mind has to be completely free of all other thoughts to write a great paper.

I also feel successful when I not only write a lot, but when all of the writing is good, I feel as though I have many strengths as well as weaknesses.…
