'Writing about Writing' was the first assignment that was assigned for homework. We had to create a three hundred word writing piece about the benefits of writing. In class, we read many different types of essays, poems, quotes (and more) about why it is good to write. The assignment we were given was very open ended, we just had to write about the act of writing. I chose to stick to the non-fiction side, because I haven't have much experience with non-fiction writing. I am honestly proud of this assignment because I worked very hard on it. I spent lots of time on it and created the best writing I could. Some of the essay is scientific and fact based, while some of it is opinionated. I enjoy mixing writing types like this because I feel that it really helps the essay become more interesting to read, as well as it challenges me to be more creative with my writing. I hope I get the opportunity to grow as a writer this year by trying new types of writing I'm not as comfortable as. I feel like with a little push I could become a very strong writer and I hope to develop that this year.
