My writing as a freshman was very immature. I used basic vocabulary and choppy sentences. I often would write my paper at midnight the day before it was due. Therefore I never planned my writing in an organized manner and it often showed. Now I am more active in the writing process, developing my thoughts before I even begin to write. This enables me to become more analytical and travel more in depth with my topic. The most difficult part of the writing process is actually just starting to work on it. However, once I get started I do a good job of knocking it out.

I'm not a very good writer, but I'm an excellent rewriter. ~James Michener
