List of Activities Blog 14

1. Most times, when I start writing, I don’t have a topic or a focus. I start to free write and see what comes to my mind. I’m constantly second guessing my topics. I’m never sure how much information I’m comfortable giving out.

2. I do best with writing that although involves me, does not have myself as the central focus. This is why my Personal essay was about my sister, and her journey. My memoir was about my family and its journey and my journalism essay about my job and its employees.

3. Try to describe the scenario, or the key points of the scenario, as if I don’t know anything about the topic.

4. I don’t do outlines. I just let my writing stroll through my memory, and refuse to edit until the story is told.
