Writers Journal

  1. Parrott writes about metacognition and the idea that writers aren’t necessarily prolific and definitely aren’t just lucky or naturally gifted, but are instead persistent. How would you define and describe persistence in this course and in your writing experiences? Do you consider yourself a writer?

During this course I was challenged with projects and assignments I haven’t seen. Moreso, I have never wrote a writers journal and my writings haven’t been exactly the most clear. This course taught me that as I continue to write and read, I improve by the day.

Writers Journal

  • How were your expectations met or countered? Were your concerns or fears justified? How so?
  • When Writing my research paper, I was extremely scared and confused I didn’t know where to start or where to find sources for my writings. It was challenging. Nonetheless, I figured it out and thankfully my professor helped guide me what to think about.
