My Writing Style

468 Words2 Pages

I enjoy writing to the extent, I would keep journals at hand in case I have an idea for a poem. It takes me time to think and formulate ideas, I imagine I am not alone. I actually started writing and drawing at twelve years old. When I was twelve I thought all poetry had to rhyme, since I was raised with the stories from the Cat in the Hat. As time went on, I avoided reading about other poets because I thought there work would influence my writing in a negative way. I wanted to be original and didn’t want their ideas to influence my ideas. After a while I did developed my own style of writing. The first poets that I acquainted myself with was David Frost, and Elizabeth Barret Browning, and enjoyed a little bit of Shakespeare. One day on the job we were discussing poets …show more content…

And Isaiah my favorite Prophet. These passages moved me to tears, they stirred within me a desire to write and express the depths of my own soul. This may sound odd, but it was the first time that I actually noticed that poetry didn’t not have to rhyme to be called poetry. It’s been a journey for me and enjoy it.

I believe one of my strengths is having a vivid imagination. Most of the time, I can see the ending of the storyline before I can see the beginning of the story, I have to stress not all of the time. I find myself constantly revising, until it flows and comes together. There are days where I can sit at the table for hours, just thinking about what I want to say and rarely get tired, especially when I’m inspired to write. One thing I do need is peace and quiet to think, because I am easily distracted.

I wish I could recognize my weaknesses so I can work on them. Overall, I enjoy writing, I don’t particularly find it difficult as long as I stay true to myself and write from the heart what I believe or researched to be true. This brings the best out of me as I believe we should all write with integrity and

I also think about the possibility of getting to overwhelmed that I stop all together. While I have these thoughts, I also have the thought of how proud my mom would have been of me. Ever since I was a child, I always liked to write. I would write short stories and poems that I would then show to my mom. She would praise me and tell me that I would be able to write whatever I wanted.

The key for me is to remove all of the normal boundaries: Self-criticism and self-doubt have no place while I am writing. I take the critic out of the room because there are no limits or boundaries when I write. I let the story spin out without anything to block its birth. What stops you when you write?

I’ve always loved poetry and used to write it when I was younger, then I switched to writing music and songs more frequently. Many of my lyrics lean towards the poetic style of symbolism and phrasing. I see song lyrics in the tree lines and melodic rhythms in running water. The world is made of music and poetry if we take the time to look and the patience to listen.

Ocean Vuong talks a lot about how he recommends a lot of writers to embrace poetry to enhance their writing. "I would encourage every writer attempting a novel to take a serious earnest attempt at writing poems ... you have to pay attention even to the line, even to every syntactic unit, every breath. It creates hypervigilance to the torque and sensibilities of a certain sentence." (Vuong).

Having my high school at the AP program established under SCNU was always one of my luckiest things happened to me. At here, I was trained to be priorly familiar with the U.S. education system and successful after coming to the U.S. where all the students were supposed to go. In order to be prepared, I was trained to write different kinds of essays, including laboratory report, social science research paper and literature expository writing. I have started to write all these kinds of essays since grade 10, and every writing assignment has gone through the process of outlining, drafting, peer proofreading and editing. At college, my writing style hasn’t really changed, yet, the way I write an essay has changed.

Poetry is a very unique type of writing. Poetry allows people to express their emotions in a way they feel comfortable. Every poem has a meaning to it, whether it is talking about food, interest, or a moment in their lives. Readers often mistake the poet as the narrator, although in many cases this is true. Many poets are the narrators and the poems are about their personal life.

Life is chaotic, toxic and stressful. The problems of the universe seems to weigh me down, closing the walls in daily. I find peace and reach a state of euphoria when I write.

I take breaks which add more time to write a paper. My biggest problem is procrastination. I spend so much time thinking about ideas for a paper, and getting distracted that adds on more time writing. Another reason I hate writing papers is thinking about what to discuss while writing.

To be the poet, one must be the poem to be able to connect with their readers, if one cannot be the poet nor the poem, then it’s not poetry. When I write or read poetry, I must be able to feel some type of explosion in my veins, like what I would imagine a bullet would feel
