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’ve noticed some of my paragraphs have more words than needed; in order to reach my goal, I need to read through my paragraphs and alter--or even get rid of--words. Convention errors and run on sentence affect fluency. Shorter sentences may help the fluency of my paragraphs. Another intention I have for my writing is to increase my vocabulary.
