First Essay experience

I love writing. There is nothing quite like taking words and putting them down on paper. It is a bit unnerving to realize that I am not the only one that will read my work. When I was given the assignment for my essay in my English 1310 class, I was nervous. I know there are things I struggle with in grammar and content in my formal writing, which hinders me in my confidence in writing. When I began writing my narrative essay on a Christmas memory I was taken back to that family Christmas in 2001 and simply wrote what happened as I remembered it. The critique and correction I received from my professor and fellow student was encouraging and motivating. I’m looking forward to what else I will learn in this class to build my confidence in writing well. To all of my future assignments and challenges to improve and become a better, more confident writer I say, BRING IT ON!
