The Importance Of My Writing

As a writer it is hard to tell if your own writing has improved because no matter what you can always see your own faults and try to fix them. However even though I see these faults I also see my writing improving and my voice is becoming more vivid compared to the papers I have written at the beginning of this semester.

I know when reviewing another person’s work it needs more than telling the person their writing is good or bad but doing these lessons has helped me learn how to tell people how to better improve their writing. It also helped me when others reviewed my work because it helped me understand what they mean when writing their comments and know it was alright to ask for help

It is hard for me to write papers because I want to get right to the point so my readers can easily see what want. I could best describe them as Spark Notes. Now I am able to think of new ways to lengthen my writing by make them more vivid and enjoyable by adding imagery and metaphors. The newest thing that I have learned is APA. I have never used APA and I learned that it is very similar to MLA just different formatting.

My paper was not like that so MLA seemed more
