provides the materials to compose an essay to the best of my abilities. To complete this goal, I have devised a plan based upon recommended steps to improve the process of one's writing in Hjortshoj’s The Transition of College Writing. He explains that writers often undergo ‘’phases of planning, revising, and editing ‘’that ‘’ are therefore interwoven with composing a draft’’ (Hjortshoj 61) unlike the strict linear pattern one might learn and use in high school. To avoid advocating this linear…

In my proposal, I was too vague about bringing the issue to attention in the first paragraph. The first paragraph should introduce the issue- including that Idaho State University is the issue. The proposal needs more detail about the issue sooner. When writing this paper, I started off really vague about the issue talking about how in general things break.

As a child with an alcoholic parent, I struggled to find a healthy outlet for my emotions. I’d tried running, drawing, painting, singing, playing an instrument, but to no avail, I could not find what could calm me. Finally one day my friend pointed me to a mediocre fanfiction…

Michael Flanigan’s thoughts on the writing process imply that writing is a tough and laborious act, that needs proper care and handling. There are very few shortcuts available when conveying what you want to express using the written word.

There is a critic by the name of John Moore who states, “She startles us with her close-ups of life on the range; her characters move in landscapes that are unforgiving of their flaws.” Meaning that in each story each character is a sort of anti-hero who can never seem to have things go his/her way. Such an example is presented in Brokeback…

When I was trying to expand my writing ability, I found that the process can be very difficult, as well as, frustrating. When the writing is done properly it can change the views of millions. I benefited a lot from The Bedford Guide for College Writers 10th edition textbook. I learnt how to reach out to certain audiences. For instance, when I wrote my cause and effect essay…
