Read like a writer

In “How to read like a writer” Mike Bunn states ” You are already an author.”, as a way to explain to the readers that everyone in their own ways has a story to tell based off of their lives, the things they like, the things they read, experience, and see. Everyone has their own interest, and by us being able to experience new things when it comes to text and things like that we become more open to the the term ” Read Like A Writer”. This term shows the significance on how students are able to build or construct what they are taught into their own writing.By reading different text, articles, or books these are ways in which teaches these students of the different techniques in writing. For example when I started reading different kind of books like: “the vampire diaries, the perks of being a wallflower, Milk and honey, and etc I became more open to different ways to tell a story, and the different techniques in which the writers use in order to try to convey a message or highlight a certain point in a book in which gives us background information of why a character or person is the way that they are. These books has shaped my writing drastically being that within the short stories that I write on a daily bases has been built around not only my life but the lives in which no one is really willing to talk about. Personally Writing has been my passion for a long time since middle school I was always a fan of writing starting off on wattpad, and now in my journals, and being that I have always been given different kind of stories I have been shown different kind of techniques in which I have found way better.Words has always been in my everyday life because we use words for everything , and being able to watch myself become more open to new things throughout text and stuff makes me feel real lucky because not many people are given the opportunity’s that I have. This article “How to read like a writer” is something that would help me in my everyday life because Mike Dunn taught me that it’s better to feel the words rather than just read them. Something in which I wish I can do like Mike Dunn is figure out how to make my words match, I guess I mean I wish I can be able to have my words be more soothing to the readers, and my grammar is terrible. Those are the two things that I feel like I need to focus more on but other than that I think that I am doing pretty fine.

Future self

Hey Ziah,

You came a long way , and don’t worry you still got more to go. Don’t break down its okay things get hard, so maybe you should stop trying to be so hard on your self. Things soon get better just stay focus, and when you do not understand or need help with something girlllll you better ask someone for help. Im proud of you even when I do not show it. You got this, and when you do not there is others who will help just do not be afraid to ask for help Daziah. You are smart , and talented stop trying to convince yourself that you are not. You made it this far do not quit now. I love you.

-Love Daziah

Its Beauty in the struggle

When it comes to online learning i guess you can say that I am nervous. Being in my house I am able to get easily distracted. I would use the term “Nervous” to describe how I am feeling about my first semester at City Tech being that Online learning is something I have not gotten use to , and as a result of that I fear that I would lose the sense of bettering my future for me, and my future family.

When it comes down to my first semester I am worried about the work, and the stress that will come behind it. I feel like not being able to actually have that college experience , and physically not being able to walk the halls , build friendships, and ask for help in person worries me. Not actually being able to gain a sense of extra help when I need things to either be explained or if I need A extra push is probably what is gonna be my biggest concern. Hopefully I would be able to get out of that.

The Quote “Its beauty in the struggle , and ugliness in the success ” Is probably what means the most to me during this time. I say this because I believe that being in quarantine , and going to college is gonna be probably the biggest struggle that I have to face, but at the same time Its okay for me to struggle as long as I am able to pick myself back up again is all that matters.

– I did not know how to add the picture so I just typed up the quote
