Writing Inventory

      Writing is something all people do, for school, work, or even fun! Writing is one thing I love to do; writing to me is a kind of closure. Since my childhood I've always adored writing, I write in possibly all of my spare time. When I have nothing to do, I write my feelings down, and in my purse I carry all of those little notes.

      I’m always reading, I have piles upon piles of books in my bedroom read and unread. My favorite authors are: Steven king, Shakespeare, Sarah Dessen and Jodi Picoult. My favorite kinds of writing would be poetry and a classic essay. I love writing poetry; it comes so naturally to me. Writing a classic essay is my choice because I find it very easy to do. Writing an essay or poetry comes so smoothly to me, so it is my favorite kind of writing. Not all writing comes smoothly for me though; narrative or comparison pieces are sort of difficult and challenging.

      I write about many many things. I have a very vast imagination; my imagination extends upon a wide variety of things. I write very deep emotional poetry, I write foolish and silly short stories for children, and I can also write successful essays. I come up with my ideas simply just from my mind, I can think of an idea in an instant!

      Right now, I am not currently working on anything, I write my feelings down everyday, but it is nothing special. I write poetry just when it comes to me, whether at 2am or in the middle of class, I always find myself writing. Once, when I was in Grade 9, I wrote a biography for English class. I was very proud of this work; it was easy to write because I simply just had to write about myself. I got 96% on this assignment, I was very proud, I felt much achieved.
       

      When I write, I usually do not produce drafts, I try my best during my original and I use pencil so I do not usually need to do a draft. I get good marks in English mainly because my voice. When I write, I do not go simple; I go big or go home. When I write I'm very deep and emotional. My strengths as a writer would be my voice, and my description. I am not that good with grammar, when I write, I tend to use too many commas. I am usually a decent writer, but grammar isn't my strong suit.
My favorite subject to write about would be life; writing about life is so easy, mainly because we all have one. We’ve all been through hardships and we have all been hurt, so I find writing a classic essay on life is easy. My goals as a writer would be to graduate with a very high English mark, and to write a childrens book! I hope this course will help me achieve my goals! (:
