After reading the instructions for
this assignment, I immediately thought of voice/tone as a strength of mine. I
feel like when I read my own writing it sounds like me, not just some random
writer. I have been reading my blog posts and noticed this. I even got my friends
to read a couple of my blog posts and they agreed that they all showed tone and
voice. Another strength of mine is audience. I think that I can change my
writing styles depending on who my audience or target audience is. A splendid
example of this is my research project. I read the comments on my paper and saw
that I did well with audience. My final strength is staying with my genre. I
think this is probably everyone's strength because it's just staying on topic.
This year I have greatly improved my writing from last year. If I remember correctly, I do no believe I made a single A on any major writing assignments last year. But after referring back to my gradebook, I have found that I have made several A's on writing assignments. Another reflection of my writing this year is that I have gotten better with writing techniques; especially citations. I know I have mentioned my distaste for citations many times, but I have to admit that I have become better at citing my sources. I noticed this after I looked at my research paper. Because I had to use so many in-text citations, I eventually got the hang of it and knew how to do them and where to put them. This is a reflection of my writing this year.
