Hello English 15

In the past writing has never really been a friend of mine. I always did well in my English classes, but dreaded ever having to write a paper. I am not particularly bad at writing, but I am not really amazing either. I find my writing quite boring compared to many others I have read. Writing papers is sort of like being nagged by my family members about something. Needless to say, it is just not a good time. I guess that is because I have never really been inspired to write something amazing that interested me. If I cannot even want to think about it how can I really be effective at writing about it? I feel as if I wrote about something that really inspired me I could turn my usual drab writing into something exhilarating for the reader and myself. Instead of the usual droning essays in my AP classes, I would rather write about something that interests me. A boring topic is extremely hard to write about and make it entice readers. This year I hope to find more interesting topics than analyzing the psyche of Lady Macbeth.

  1. Agreed; boring topics are never any fun to write about. While writing is always difficult (and even great writers will tell you its a struggle) hopefully you'll get a better sense of how you can craft work about what you're interested in. The key is to know what you're interested in and use that as your topic.
