The most I've learned about myself as a writer stems from the different writing challenges that we do when revising out portfolio posts. I wouldn't say there is one thing in particular that I am so terrible at, but there is a broad scale of things that I have trouble with. So far, I've been trying to improve my grammar in quotes (something Dr. Gibbs has to help me with far too much) and imagery with words. I would love to paint pictures with words without even thinking about it, but right now that seems far out of reach.
I most admire some people innate ability to write stories that just flow perfectly. It seems like they can just think of a topic and write a story without even thinking much. That most likely isn't the case, but there are a few writers in our class who I can tell are on another level when it comes to storytelling and their posts overall. You know they write well when they make an introduction sound super intelligent! I may need to give people a little harsher feedback, but overall I think I have been pretty honest with my thoughts. I don't know if they actually take any of my thoughts into consideration, but hopefully they read them at the least!
