12/13-12/17 Blog 1

While being a part of this online publishing class we have created many individual pieces or writing. Most of these pieces are featured in the blogs we right every week. We are assigned three blogs each week on different topics. Also, we are given to articles to write on a topic based off the school activities or programs which are shown on the school website called the Bulldog. While being in this class I have learned much about me as a writer. I have learned that I am much more interested in writing about topics I am interested in. I have also noticed it is much easier to think of topics when you get to choose. We are able to pick most of the topics we write about and the blogs are ideas that most of us students would think about. My writing process is pretty simple. I brainstorm what I would like to write so I get a basic idea laid out. After that I start to write the paper and be as creative as possible. This can be done by using a wide variety of words and vocabulary. After writing I quickly revise be reading it over and see if there are any mistakes. Once done I finalize it and no further changes are made. I enjoy writing about anything that relates to me. This can be sports or holidays or anything dealing with school. Things I don’t like to write about are boring topics such as lawn gnomes, flowers, and art. This class has increased my ability to be productive with writing. Since we are writing for the bulldog which is a link on the school web page, other people are allowed to access this site and view the articles. This is great because it gets our writing out to the public where people can complement and comment on your thoughts.
