That's the question I'm asking myself. I just reread what I posted in my very first entry on here from a few months ago, and what the hell? Wow, that was one deep thought I wrote. I was asked to say who I am as a writer, and I wrote something which I even have trouble analyzing completely. But I can understand my own self. Heheh, its odd trying to look at myself, yet look at the name of my blog for crying out loud.
As a writer, I now can change a few things about what I think. I can still get the job done which I'm supposed to do, and still have difficulty getting there, but I think I possibly have less trouble now. I still think some of the same thoughts, but I can indeed analyze better now, and definitely cite crap better too.
One thing I have learned about myself is if I try and write one paper that is long, and I lose track of my points, I do tend to start ranting about stuff, and even I will admit that. When I go back to revising now (which that skill is loads better), I look at my ranting and stuff that goes off subject, all I can do is laugh at it, because some of the junk I say is actually pretty amusing to me. I read over my wording and I think to myself, "Wow, I really said that?" This method of revising works well for me, and definitely constructs how the hell I am as a writer, which I proudly say that I am a personal writer. I put so much damn emotion and personality into my words that Writers' Block is always a problem with me.
Well, I don't know when the next time I'm going to update this blog, but I'll try to keep posting stuff. Thanks for following this blog, and I enjoy comments. Keep tabs on this thing, I'd like to come back and keep listing my own personal thoughts on whatever comes to mind.
Later guys,
Jake
Wow! You learned so much this quarter. I'm glad you got a better sense of how to review your stuff and filter out the extra stuff that make sidetrack your readers. Awesome!!!
