Reflection Post

I think that as a writer I have developed in many ways. I think that the biggest way that I have developed is in the area of analyzing. I have learned that analyzing the text that is being studied is the best way to prepare for a paper and helps write clear thoughts on the matter. I can also use this skill of analyzing for other classes because it will help me to understand a topic better that I may be studying. I honestly think that the first paper I wrote was the best piece that I did. This one was the easiest to write about and I did a good job of placing the pieces together. I think that my strategy for writing goes along with my strengths for writing. That is that I am able to take a topic and just write about the topic after analyzing the text beforehand. This also leads into my weakness in academic writing and that is the planning stages. I have always had trouble with planning a paper out. I personally enjoy just writing the paper without any preparation. If I had to give myself a grade for the class I would probably say I deserve a B, but an A would be nice. I think that I deserve this because as the semester kept going I learned so much in this class and I spent a lot of time working on my past papers.
