As a writer

As a writer I really haven’t practiced much ever since graduating from high school. The only writing I actually do is at work. From grade school all the way through high school, writing was one of the top things I wasn’t very fond of. I couldn’t stay focus, my mind would stray off, and could never think of enough things to write. Ever since I got older and became more motivated to pursue my education once again I have grown a certain interest for creative writing and reading. Certain articles I’ve came across while surfing the web or books that have been recommended to me by friends of mines. I feel my vocabulary has gotten better because of it. When writing I can say my weaknesses would definitely be is how to start. I would sit there for long periods of time thinking but not come up with anything.What I would like to learn this semester is basically everything mainly creative writing. I’m always willing to learn something new or better myself in something I’m actually very interested in. Also I’m interested in spoken word which I believe is very creative. I prefer to write in pencil then anything because I can actually erase mistakes and fix them as I go and plus that is how I started writing ever since grade school. I prefer to write on paper because I have a more relaxed feeling about it. When it comes to reading I actually like screen better because that is where I do most of my reading nowadays.
