Self Reflection

shantaisawriter — Wed, 27 May 2009 13:24:56 +0000

What we had learned in creative writing is how to write stories better. Get a better feeling of writing long papers and taking our time doing it right. learned how put our thoughts together and to write whatever is going threw our minds. Creative writing class is a class that helps you organize thoughts and to make perfect papers that why we do a lot of peer editing and giving opinions on our peers paper that they write. this class was very helpful and it take a lot of work to pass this class. you have to put your best ford effort into it because if you dont the class for you would be a waste of time if. you have to want to pass and try your hardest to achieve what you would want to achieve in this writing class. but it was enjoyful having your own website that people could read and put there own opinion on there telling you what you did good and what they liked and how you could improve on to help you become more stronger in you writing.

My Proposal

shantaisawriter — Tue, 19 May 2009 18:44:48 +0000

The type of story i picked to write about are short stories. I picked short stories 1st off because i like writing stories that i made up on my own. Writing short stories are one of my stronger points and is a lil easier for me to do then writing poems. Writing short stories are also heplful and keeps you busy cause i know writing this story for these two weeks it is going to keep me busy so that i could get the grade that i deserve. My story that i am writing about is like an street story revolving romance, violence, drugs, killing, and sex. The reason i picked to write about that is because to me and coming from what i like reading it is very interesting and entertaining and catches people attention very well. My story is about a girl named sausy who grew up in a ruff child hood and didnt have much guidess to show her the right path to go.This was one woman who was out here in the wrong way. She was a woman who gave it up to everybody and didnt care. She had a child but wasn’t there for her child the way her mother wasn’t there for her. She had a good man but she couldn’t help to run the streets everyday all day. She had sex with annoymous men that she had only knew for a few hours. She was always from house to house and didnt have her own home. She use to use her body and looks to get what ever she wanted. Tworse the end of the story all that she did back fired on her because she had lost her baby and ended up with nothing and lost custody of her child and wasn’t able to see her child anymore.

If i could write a best-seller

shantaisawriter — Mon, 11 May 2009 14:05:54 +0000

if i could write a best seller my best seller would might be non fiction because non fiction stories to me are more interesting and get people more into the story of whatever is going on. Me personally i love to read non fiction books. i would like to write about something that happened in real life. I would like to write about true events people lifes and the struggles that they have been through but had over came later on in the future. I would like to write about people autobiography. My bestfriend mother was an book writer and most of the time she wrote about real life events so seeing her do that had intrested me a lot. if i was an bestseller writer i would put all of my focus and time into it to make my books be very successful and make me be successful in my work. to do something like this for an career is a big step because you are busy with people a lot like interviewing and out looking for things to write about. people lifes are sometime very interesting to me and could make me greatful for everything i have because some people don’t even have that.

My Fairy Tale…A Happy Ending

shantaisawriter — Fri, 17 Apr 2009 20:24:00 +0000

Writing my fairy tale was a little difficult. After a while it had became very hard to keep thinking about my thoughts and keeping them organized. Then it became very boring, so by it being boring i kept losing concentration so thats what made it harder. But when i was doing my paper i was getting a lot of feed back and opinions on my paper so that was a big help.

This was an good experience for me because it was something that i could think back on in the near furture when i have to do another 4 page paper. I think thats why it was so difficult because this was the longest paper that i had to do. but its good because its a step to college and seeing how the college ropes would be.

But while doing this paper i did feel like i wanted to give up because it seem like it had gotten harder each day i started writing about my fairy tale. I knew that i needed that grade so that alone was telling me in my mind not to give up on what i know i had to do. S writing the paper was a challenge but it was ok i made it happen and finished the paper so i was proud of me about that.

My Fairy Tale

Right now my fairy tale is going good. I have all of my information down. Its alot of crazy type of things i would like to put in my paper to make it entertain people to make them want to read it more than once. But honestly i think my paper are going to turn out well and it would have an good them for the people who reads this.

After two weeks my writing

shantaisawriter — Sat, 14 Mar 2009 14:49:46 +0000

After two weeks i think my writing has progressed alot. I could focus better and organize my thoughts to come in a complete sentence. I can write freely without complaining that we is writing too long or im tired. Being in this creative writing class is a great experience for me. Its something new because im not use to being in a class where we have to write for 10 minutes straight without taking your hand of f the paper. This class has strengthen my writing skills and it could also help me when i go to college. But i think my writing is getting better everytime i write. ]

Im coming to love writing about my life stories. I once hated writing in the morning. Now i like doing weekly writing reflections every week. I actually come to like being in this class. this class is helping become stronger in my writing.

am i a writer

shantaisawriter — Fri, 06 Mar 2009 20:32:14 +0000

i dont consider myself as an writer. writing comes with more than just being able to put words on a piece of paper. but it’s also comes with making since with the things you write. but another reason why i dont consider myself as an writer because i dont write as much and when i do i dont enjoy doing it i gets kind of mad. sometimes when i write i dont make since with the things i say. when i write for some reason i dosent do my best but i am working on that to improve. so this why i dont consider myself an writer.
