Writ 1122

In the Writ 1122, I think I learned a great deal about writing. I was introduced to knew material that I never would have associated with a writing class. I learned what about ethos, pathos and logos, words that I had never heard before. It was very interesting, as it was the first real writing course I had taken in college other than the FSEM. After taking this class, I realize that there is so much more to learn about writing; and I can never truly learn everything. I think this class really helped my writing because I had to focus on things I had never done before. It was very knew and challenging. Although writing is not my favorite subject, it is one that I have to know to have success in my life. I also realized through this class that the hardest type of essay to write is a rhetorical analysis. It has to be very proper and structured, and there isn't a lot of room for personal opinions. It has to be analyzed professionally, and you have to be very careful not to add excess fluff. I think that's one of the hardest things for me to do, but it really helped me develop as a writer.
