Online Publishing 12/13-12/17

What have you learned about yourself as a writer since you've been in this course? Describe your writing process. What do you like to write about? What do you not like to write about? What impact, if any has this class had on your writing?
When I first took Online Publishing I thought, “Oh god, this is going to blow so much.” But then when I finally started to write articles and blogs and such my writing skills started to improve. I used to pu5t sentences together like I was trying to sew . . . and I can’t sew worth crap. Now I can actually make a decent four hundred word paragraph without trying. Well I try a little bit, that much I can say. Usually when I write something I go through it twice. I do this because I want to make my paragraph better, maybe put in some fancy words, maybe a little razzle dazzle if you know what I mean. Now that this course is almost over I can go over it four times or more. With two editors I can edit my work and then go over it to see if there is any “Razzle Dazzle” I want to add to it by chance. Also there has been this story I have been trying to get started to for some time. Now I have four chapters of my story in and it’s actually good. I feel like I have a sense of accomplishment because of this and I am extremely proud. To be honest I actually wish I could take this class a second time because I think it’s so awesome. In fact that last statement was not an opinion, that last statement was a fact. To be clear this was the boringest blog I have ever typed in my entire life. Congratulations Mr. Currin. Eat that for breakfast you beautiful person you.

  1. Caitlin, while I appreciate you referring to me as a beautiful person, I usually eat an English muffin with peanut butter on it each day for breakfast. Just thought you might like to know...
