Draft, revise, and edit your text to produce a well-organized essay of at
least 250 words and not more than 500 in response to the following prompt:
Your growth as a writer depends on how well you understand what you do when you
write so that you can build on good habits. Reflect on some of the following questions
to help you see the process that led to the creation of your essays this semester and find
ways to continue improving your writing process in the future. Focus on questions that
lead to significant or useful ideas that will help you in the future. Your essay should refer
to specific examples from one or more of the three essays you wrote this semester.
How would you tell the story of your thinking? Did your views on any topic
change during your writing process?
At some point in your writing, did have to choose between two or more
alternatives, such as sources, organization, or different ways to begin an essay?
What were they, and how did you choose?
What was the most difficult problem you faced while writing? How did you go
about trying to solve it?
Whose advice did you seek while researching, organizing, drafting, revising, and
editing? What advice did you take, and what did you ignore? Why?
Present your essay in MLA format. You are not required to use sources other than
your essays, but if you choose to use sources you should include correct in-text
citations and a Works Cited page.
