1 - Writing About Myself as a Writer
I have always been confident as a writer. I normally have an easy time writing an essay. I would say my strength is I can write down ideas I want in my paper, sit down and write the whole paper from start to finish. Unfortunately, I normally do this close to the deadline, and cannot revise as much as necessary. My writing, as dealing with grammar and sentence structure, has improved since I began working at the writing center. Grammar has always been a weakness in my writing, but due mostly to my inability to revise a paper. Since I have been helping others to revise their papers, I have greatly improved as revising my own. Despite the improvement, I still struggle with tense. After I have written a paper, I go back and find I switched between past and present tense. Even once I discover this, I have trouble deciding which to use. In some cases, it seems changing is necessary, but I have never checked the rules. If I have any writing ambitions, it would be to continue learning and improving my writing.
