Dear Professor Cline,
I must first say, I appreciate this class very much. I have always had a love for writing, and I enjoy being able to further my understanding of English and writing. My biggest challenge in this class has definitely been literary analysis. When trying to write my essay, I felt lost at first. I had a hard time trying to express what I was saying without putting a lot of my own emotion into my writing. Writing without emotion is very hard for me, which is why I enjoy more creative writing. Writing a good essay is a very hard thing to do. I definitely believe my strongest area so far has been my ability to take the constructive criticism and apply it to better my writing.
The readings we have done in this class so far have really affected me emotionally. I’ve really enjoyed everything we’ve been given to read so far and I look forward to what is in store. The Handmaid’s Tale is a very interesting book and provoked a lot of thought about what it would be like for me if such a world became our own. It’s interesting to think about those type of hypothetical things and how I would react to it.
For me, literary analysis is very different then other writing I’ve done in college so far. I do not specifically enjoy that type of writing, but I appreciate being taught how to do it. I do enjoy challenging myself. I believe literary analysis is very important, although I do believe it is a harder form of writing for me. I enjoy more creative writing.
My goal for the second half of the semester is to continue to do my best and take in every detail of criticism I am given and apply it to my writing. I hope to gain a good understanding for different forms of essays and writing, and I hope to get an A for the semester. I will continue to work hard and give my all in every piece of writing I turn in.
Thank you so much for everything I have learned from this class so far, and for all I will learn the rest of the semester!
Sincerely,
Heather Audis
