My favorite piece of writing would most certainly be the group proposal paper we wrote in the Writing for Engineers (ENC3254) course that I took last Spring semester. Our group was composed of three people and we wrote to persuade the UF administration to spare $500,000 for the renovation of the Reitz Union Theatre. A great deal of money had already been spent for a new speaker system and screen, but the theatre still appeared old and outdated, therefore it did not attract any more people. The money that we requested would be used to buy new seats, expand the theatre, add a concession stand, and install new walls and ceiling.
This paper was an obvious example of a strong closed-form of writing. We had to interview the people in charge of the theatre and do intense research. Our audience, the UF administration, is a serious and formal group of people, so great amount of structure throughout the paper was necessary. Also in order to convince our audience we had to support and concentrate on the thesis that this investment is a wise one for the UF administration.
Working of this paper was very enjoyable and taught me a great deal. This proposal was something that could actually be used outside of class and could benefit many people. I go to that theatre pretty often, so I would have loved to see the renovation actually be conducted. We did plan on actually submitting the paper to the UF administration, however we never got to do so. As an engineering major, I highly liked learning about and researching the structure and composition of the building. In addition I became good friends with the people who were in my

The Importance Of Writing

The Recalling days I would binge-read some of my favorite books, I remember how much my love for writing was incomparable to my love for reading; I could spend hours reading books but when it came to writing I always felt down. Maybe my inability to write in a similar or better way than the authors of books I read, provoked thoughts of a lack of imagination and strength to write anything that could be of interest to anyone. My confidence in my writing capability was at an all-time low. Slowly but surely…

lol i can't even Essay

Anne Lamott. I usually don’t know how to start off a paper and I would spend hours on the introduction; so, I typically just start off by writing a bunch of semi-coherent sentences and try to figure out in what direction I want to take my paper. By the time I get to the body I would get a “lightbulb moment” and I would go back an edit. My favorite line was “I’d obsessed over getting creamed by a car before I could write a decent second draft” because I could totally relate to this. I…

My Literate Life

at all. Elementary school writing was fun to explore if you really enjoyed writing and to express how you wrote. I remember back in the second grade we would write short stories about our favorite hobbies and I could write for hours about my favorite activities, but now writing has come to MLA format, rubrics, and strict topics I become stumped when it’s time to write. In the 2nd grade was when my excitement of writing began. The whole class would spend hours writing in a journal about their future…

Passionate About Writing

I have always loved Language Arts. I have always been infatuated with anything that had to do with books, writing, grammar, and more. My writing has essentially always been superior to most of my peers, mostly because I am passionate about writing.

My Writing Experience

was in fifth grade at Kingman Elementary School I had to write my first essay. I was only 10 years old and had never written anything to turn in for a grade.

Since my whole class was learning to write at the same time, my two best-friends, Kathlynn and…

Review: Yes To New Musical Theatre

song cycle! Partly because the music is kick-ass, also because the majority of the recording artists on this album are amazing and inspiring, and because the way in which this music was written breaks the typical conventions of musical theater writing. The writing of this musical reminded me of how the musical Found was written or the song cycle Gone Missing. Music and Lyrics were created by the up and coming writer of our generation Ryan Scott Oliver. He gained his inspiration for the music and lyrics…
