====Writing for me has always been a struggle. I feel like I am able to come up with creative ideas rather easily, but putting them into words has always been a challenge for me. I feel like I do not really have a writing process. I just write. I am incapable of writing some of an assignment, stopping to do or go somewhere else, and then restarting the assignment. I just cannot write papers in sections. I have to write it all at once. Because of this my assignments usually do not get done until the last minute. More often than not it is not due to procrastination, it is due to time. Since I have to write a paper all at once, I need to have the time available to do so. Therefore other shorter, and quicker assignments and tasks get done first. I think that leaving papers to last minute explains my other writing habits.====

====I also rarely pre-write. Like I said before, I just do everything all at once. I write what comes to my mind while I am writing the paper. The only time I ever pre-write is when it is a requirement, and even then it is not a true pre-write. It is just enough to satisfy the assignment. As for post-writing, I do usually read over my assignments and check for mistakes. I am not a fan of peer editing because I am never confident in my writing, and therefore would rather other classmates not read it. Although I appreciate feedback from my peers and teachers, often times, unless it is grammatical, I am happy with my work. Although this may seem hypocritical it is just the way I am. I do not like other people reading my work, but I often am okay with the way it turned out.====

====A main strength that I feel like I have in my writing is I feel like I am an adaptable writer. I think that I do a good job writing in different ways. I like a challenge, and I enjoy trying new things. Although, I do not think I am the strongest writer, I think that I am creative. If I continue to work on my ability to put my thoughts into words, which is one of my biggest weaknesses, I think that I could become a pretty decent writer. Another weakness I need to work on is grammar and punctuation. There are some aspects of that that I am goo at and others that I am just not. I am awful with commas. I never know when to use them, and I often just do not. I think that I have a lot to work on with my writing, but writing is a process, and I believe my weaknesses are fixable with practice.====

====I have noticed that over my colligate career and especially through this class I have really grown as a writer. I have grown mechanically in my writing, yes, but more importantly I have grown personally in my writing. I have begun to learn who I am as a writer. The reflections that we have written for our assignments have really helped me to see who I am as a writer. I have also learned new ways to express myself through writing. There is so much more to writing then just academic papers, and I am really excited to have been given the chance to explore different genres in writing like in the Unfamiliar Genera Project. It is nice and helpful to write outside your comfort zone every one in a while.====

====Although writing is not my favorite thing to do, and I am not the best at it I have grown as a writer. I know that writing is a life long process and that if I continue to work on my writing I will continue to grow in it. I am excited to build on the writing foundation that I have gain so far. Writing is so much more than just words on a page, it is expression of ones’ self. I am really looking forward to seeing where my writing journey takes me next.====
