My Life as a WriterBradley Richardson

Before This Class Heavily disliked writing The only types of writing I had done

were according to a set, non-flexible structure

I never really considered the purpose of structure or how changing this could complement a piece of writing

Didn’t have much of a writing process that I used

Before this class 7th grade writing teacher I had been adjusted by middle and high

school to focus on mechanics rather that more important things in writing

I had never truly written from a personal perspective

Literacy Memoir Opened my mind to non-methodistic

ways of writing Made me reflect on my past experiences

with writing Allowed me to consider the true purpose

of writing Made me think about revising my

associations with writing

DCP Report A type of writing I was more familiar

with from high school Allowed me to realize the difference in

writing mentalities my high school self and myself while I was writing this

Gave me better reason to think about my structure rather than blindly following what I’m told to do

Writer’s Reflection Made me fully see the difference

between my writing at the beginning of this class and at the end

Gave a good point of comparison

After this class My adaptivity is much higher I have a better idea of how to use

writing processes to my advantage I have more motivation to write as it

comes easier to me now I will consider the purposes of things in

general more

Application I will have a better idea of what

mentality to be in when I’m writing in a job

Since I’m more adaptive, I’ll be able to write optimally in a variety of situations.
