Blog Response 1

1. There are many key components in good writing. The writing must have a clear and main point to it so the readers can understand the authors purpose for that piece of writing. It should also be well organized and structured. The transitions of the writing should have logical connections that work well, which will also make the essay or writing have great flow. Also, the writing needs to have correct grammar and punctuation to make the writing make sense to the reader. Lastly, The literature should be interesting and enjoyable so the readers can stay hooked and keep reading.

2. It takes a great amount of time, dedication and effort to be a good writer. Practice, practice and more practice would tremendously help someone who would want to become a good writer. Writing about everyday trials and tribulations would improve a persons writing quite quickly. Classes and research could also be a great way to learn how to write well. Reading books, magazines, short stories would be a great examples to help ones writing raise to a better level. Having fun with writing could also make it much more enjoyable for the audience and the author.

3. My question about writing is what are the different ways to site information that I would use in a paper? Another is what exactly are the different formats of writing (MLA)?

4. The most difficult thing for me to accomplish as a writer is being able to introduce and conclude my essays and papers well. Also using some types of punctuation are difficult. The easiest thing for me is descriptive essays.
