Why Writing Inspires Me

         I have learned a lot about my writing style this semester. The first couple journals that I wrote at the beginning of the year were really rough and bad. Throughout the semester I felt like I got a lot more confident in my writing. To really have a successful paper you have to have a lot of imagery in your writing and i really struggled with that. Explaining things in specific ways. Going into deeper details really help to improve your writing techniques. What my main problem was that I knew what to write about but just didn't know how to explain it on paper. The more we have written papers and writing in our journals I think improved my writing a lot more then what it was like at the beginning of the school year.

          As I said earlier, I can really improve on explaining my thoughts more thoroughly. My introductions really needs work for example "Halloween was this past week." This introduction sucks and if I was the reader in this situation then I would not be at all interested in reading this piece of writing with that boring introduction. Towards the end of the semester I used a lot more better introductions. "Later this week my oldest sister left to go Austin, Texas to attend college." This quote I think grabs and excites the reader more then the first one. I didn't care about writing when I first walked into this LA class but when I start learning knew tricks about writing I started liking it more and more. I am still going to improve my writing until this day on and will get better and better each day.  

          A lot of different things inspire me to write but what I write the most about would be settings like a beach or mountains. This imagery that I see everyday wants me to write. Describing the coloring and the main part that makes me happy about this setting. It draws memories to my head and how much fun I had. Another thing that inspires me is music. Music describes the feelings that we get when something good or bad happens. I connect to a lot of music if its about family, friends, breaking up with boyfriends in my prospective and how that you have a lot of feelings. Its makes me write about my feelings.
