Writing in general is not one of my strong suits. It is difficult to highlight my strengths as I feel most of my writing shows off my weaknesses.

Some people look at writing as a tedious process; they are right. I‚ like many other students‚ may feel as if it is a full time job.

I dreaded it of course

Throughout this creative writing unit‚ I’ve grown as a writer. I have discovered writing weaknesses I have‚ and acknowledged some of my writing strengths.

This method of writing is where my weaknesses show. Sometimes what I wrote makes sense in my head‚ but not on paper. Other challenges I face with
