Creative accounting

delightful outlet and art form. Today, I am the proud author of two books, and I use this art form to empower other girls to be confident leaders of their generation. My tools? A paper, a pen, my laptop, a passion, and a dream. This intellect of creative freedom is where I found my passion, where I felt as if I was being useful. From the bright colors of a sunset, to the way someone’s eyes light up when they speak of something they love, I slowly began to really notice and find a new…

Writing has changed my perspective on various aspects of my life. Some of the essays that I have written in the past have opened doors to new ideas. These essays have helped me make connections I feel I never would have made without writing. I believe this is because I enter my deepest level of concentration when I write. This heightened level of concentration I reach when writing has allowed me to reflect on important areas in my life such as self-awareness and motivation. Self-awareness is a…

Writing was not a subject that held my interest in high school. Throughout the last twelve years I have found myself having to write letters, proposals, and business correspondence for my employers. I would complete the assignment and move on to the next task. Deciding to further my education I enrolled in Daytona State College and my first class was your ENC 1101. I have seen a change in my pre-class writing style; I have honed my skills, and the different techniques I have learned while…

When I was in elementary and middle school I didn't really have a subject preference. I was just okay at every subject and I couldn't find myself interested in anything particular. I didn't feel lost because I had plenty of time to decide what I wanted for myself that would make me happy. After a certain point in my life though, I have always had a preference for English, a preference that I didn't act on until recently. That's not the story that I want to tell. I want to introduce what…

Overcoming Adversity The best part of writing this paper was recognizing all of the adversities I have overcome lately. This paper and speech is one of the few things I really have to worry about. I live a great life, surrounded by my family and friends, and have more than enough of what I need. It is a blessing to know that I am overcoming adversity at this moment, because one of my fears is giving speeches. It’s not only getting in front of the class that bothers me, but the process of…

I am grateful for Writing 120: Effective Writing for giving me knowledge of grammar mistakes to avoid using in future papers, writing skills to implement in my work, and techniques for bettering an academic presentation. I was taught common grammatical errors for the first time in my academic career, such as dangling modifiers and faulty predication. These are mistakes I often make in my writing, which made it very illuminating to learn that there are a plethora of things I still have to learn.…

There are many similarities and differences in both creation myths and literacy narratives. Most creation myths we have read so far introduce the and how it began and all that is mankind , , , and so on while the three Literacy Narratives, describe the struggles each of authors went through as they learned to read and write and how their cultures had a big influence as they strived to succeed. Although these creation myths and literacy narratives may be very different in one way, they also…

Some people normally dream of writing a book but they lack the skills to make their dream come true. Others, are too busy such that it becomes hard for them to write a book of their own. If you belong to either of those categories, it is the high time that you hire the services of a ghostwriter. Benefits of using a Ghostwriter are really immense and that the reason you should hire their services. Ghostwriters normally do the actual writing for you in exchange for money. They normally forgo all…

You know when you are watching a movie and the main character is strapped to a bomb; you know they won’t die but you can’t help but feel your palms sweat. Well, that has been my experience with writing so far. Hilarious or odd way of describing my relationship with writing I know. Although, I have always received good grades and positive comments on my writing I can’t help but feel like the bomb is going to go off. I am feeling it right now… As I wipe my palms. Proofreading my own writing is my…
