Do I consider myself a writer? To be honest, I don't. Do I write? Yes. But I don't think that's nearly enough to consider myself a writer. I consider someone to be a writer if they happen to have a special knack in writing, or expressing their feelings through written expressions. In my mind, someone who can express themselves through writing as good or better than through mouth is a writer. In my case, I can express myself a hundred times better through words said, than those written. I know I write every day of my life, but I don't think the classification of "writer" is fit, I think the term "writer" should be reserved for people much more proficient in writing than myself.
I write, to express myself to other when the option of expressing myself orally isn't present. I also write for a grade. As bad as that may sound. Writing has always and will always be a part of education, and I know that. I've accepted, and have actually come to actually enjoy writing research papers. Which in the case of this class is actually good, but I still don't enjoy writing stories, or poetry or anything like that.
In this class I'm hoping to strengthen my writing in regards to research papers, as well as overall. I know writing will always be a part of my life, from now till the time I die, and it's something I need to become extremely proficient at, especailly if I want to be a successful individual in the future.
