Week 1 Blog Prompt

As we discussed in class today, an important step in becoming a stronger writer is to identify and learn the strengths of your own writing process. As a follow-up to that, here is your first blogging prompt:

Come up with a simile that describes how you feel about writing, or your writing process. Then explain your simile. (A basic template for this would be as follows: “Writing is like ____________ because __________________________.”)

To get you started, here’s mine: "writing is like swimming, because I’ve gotten better and faster at it the more I’ve practiced. However, there’s always a chance when I enter the water that I’ll drown.”

Have fun with this, and try to come up with a more interesting example than mine!
