Hello, for this blog in my English Composition 1 class I will be discussing my transformation as a writer by expressing where I began and where I feel I am now. In this course writing definitely has helped me be more expressive. The second part of the semester was kind of redirected due to the pandemic,but applying all the good information received in this course inspires me to keep writing even if I don't know where to begin. Letting your thoughts flow while free writing really helps to get ideas out there, sometimes we would open up with a free write which gets things down on paper and then the words kind of flow. I learned to apply things like description and action showing the setting applying it to the main idea of the text. With the links provided ,Reflective Writing and Genres in Academic Writing : Reflection I will share my thoughts on GRITT:
G-genre awareness is knowing what function you are writing in. R-Rhetorical awareness is what mode you took in your writing are you persuading, Informing, or Entertaining. I-Identity as an author what’s my preferred style of writing. I have learned to be more expressive as a writer , applying what I’ve learned to shape my author identity. T-Theory of writing, This course has changed my view of writing as to where I write more, this course helped with my nervousness of getting things out and putting them on paper. I learned that writing is messy and you have to keep composing. T-Transfer of writing to future writing assignments,I plan on using writing as an outlet and also functions in others courses. Writing a memoir and remembering certain objects or events of that moment brings out emotion which creates a lot of flow.Creating context giving the who, what , where when, and why. I would write a piece on motivation, targeting youth and young adults , motivating individuals to have healthy thoughts and rise above negativity, touching on embracing uniqueness. This type of writing would be to assist in forward movement and positivity, writing about choices and consequences, knowing there are obstacles but with healthy thoughts they are approachable, these healthy thoughts assists in overcoming fear and doubt.
