Reflection The English 111 course is virtually, an opportunity to grow my creative writing skills and expand critical thinking abilities. Specifically, the focus on inquiry, content analysis, the application of various rhetoric writing strategies, the accurate development of theses and related statements, and the audience awareness are the primary components that ensure steady academic growth. In essence, the sheer focus on critical writing facilities ensure that one learns the English language…
In many ways, writing is the act of saying I, of inflicting oneself upon other people, of saying, “listen to me, see it my way, modify your outlook.” It’s an aggressive, even antagonistic act. You can mask its qualifiers and tentative subjunctives with ellipses and evasions—with the whole comportment of insinuating rather than demanding or suggesting rather than stating. But, there’s no getting around the fact that placing words on paper is the ploy of a surreptitious bully, an incursion, a…
We could write about anything. So of course I chose the creative writing path just because it was the easiest for me. Mrs. Mobley gave us a deadline of three days which put a lot of pressure upon my shoulders. I was going through a Syfy phase so I choose to write about the apocalypse. I was the only girl in the…
thoughts, I told the alien, “Um, poetry, okay. Well, poetry is an art. Poetry is the engraved marble of language, almost like God’s way of language. Poetry is a form in which humans use for the aesthetic assets it possesses and the theoretical and creative content it holds. The writing form contains large amounts of either oral or literary works in which semantics are used in a way that helps connect the emotions felt by the user to the author. Poetry is evocative. It triggers the reader to feel…
pick what I read. Reading books in class are not as enjoyable, unless it is a very interesting book. Some books I enjoyed reading for school were The Giver and The Great Gatsby. Writing has never really been an enjoyable experience, unless is was creative writing. I have always had problems with writing. Generally, I have never really been a fan of English class. I have always done average in my English classes. I was fine with everything, until it came to writing that was not…
Have you ever asked your child what they read at school ? Well what if they told you that they read The Tell-Tale Heart by this crazy dude. The writer must have been thinking crazy when he wrote it . He was out of his mind the whole story. That made me want to read more of the story. Im all for the short story because im interested in stories like that. I like weird and mystery stories. This makes me want to know a little more about him and his history life style. That betters my education about…
orange-grey sky with a dull orangish-red glow isn’t as beautiful as you would think. It’s yucky and ugly. Another reason I hate being out during the day is because you can’t really steal anything without being a giant red flag to the guards. Unless you’re creative enough and make a decent distraction. Right now, I’m sitting on my window sill, both my hindhooves pressing against the right side of the window frame, and both my forehooves…
you approach your topic at hand. It has been challenging to learn how to be less descriptive and to stick to the fact with few adjectives and zero personal biases as possible. I spend a good bit of time on my personal writing, the bulk of which is creative and self-expressive. I am able to vent my emotions and experiences through characters and situations that are similar to the stressors in my life. There have been some…
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…
whole new world of avenues which one can hardly imagine. The World Wide Web can also act as a medium with which one can showcase their own talents and skills in writing. Sometimes it feels good to leave the real world and enter the imaginary world of creative thoughts and put them down on a piece of paper. Who knows, if you discover that you have a way with words then you might even earn a few extra bucks along the way. Arts and Crafts: Since people who have openness as their personality trait…
