Creative Writing: My First Monitoring Peer
Hello Doc,

Thanks for those kind words! I landed my first monitoring peer, an Etihad pilot who does not have anyone else in his airline in recovery. The guy is doing real good and has great potential to build and lead a Committee at his airline that will save lives. As my first peer, I look back and see myself in him. As I get deeper into step 12, the rewards get bigger.

As far as Trump, being often the only American in the crowd, I am often asked my opinion. I try hard not to have opinions because they seem to change with knowledge. Maybe the guy will do some good, or our country was doomed long time ago. Who knows? I have found the information I get from "Sovernman" to help me in making decisions that will hopefully let me at least

    My division was stationed in Normandy, France, at the time of the Allied invasion on June 6, 1944. Toward the end of August or early September, Canadian troops captured me near Dieppe.10 I was with a small group of men who were cut off from our main company and overrun by motorized Allied units. For several days we wandered around searching for our unit, until one night we strayed into a field camp of Canadian soldiers. You can well imagine the astonishment all around when we suddenly appeared in their midst. The Canadians didn’t have a guard posted. This was probably better for all because otherwise we might have exchanged gunfire. Instead, we peacefully turned over our weapons and in return received cigarettes.…

Upon arrival, Seth and Jenna greeted their friends as they entered the room. Various beverages were freely available throughout the house. Everyone was doing it, so they joined in on the fun as well. Varied thoughts about the night flashed through Seth's head here and there, but who was he to stop now?…

    About noon, on the fifth day of their journey, Charity told Uriah to stop the wagon. Looking around, Uriah did not see anything in particular that caught his attention and did not know why she wanted him to stop; as far as he could tell, there was not anything they needed there. And, his mother had not gotten off the wagon to go do her business or said anything about eating lunch. So, after bringing the horses and wagon to a complete halt, he turned to Charity and asked, “Why did you want me to stop?”…

    A sharp wail cut through the silence of Woodbridge Mental Hospital. A nurse immediately rushed towards the far end of the hallway, her footsteps echoing off the walls of the hospital. As she approached the door of the patient’s ward, she heard equipment crashing to the floor and shattering. She fished out her cell phone and dialed a number.…

    As Fin walked along the street the leaves of the oak trees shone like patches of blue velvet, but when he stopped still nothing shimmered. The waves refused to move. The glow of the city still seeped into the morning sky, forever. He felt he must be dreaming, and yet he was sure he wasn't dreaming because everything felt so real. Surely his brain was not powerful enough to create such a masterful illusion. Or was it? He felt his head imploding just trying to figure it…

    The crumbling leaves swayed, as the winter air crashed against his home. Walking towards his farm, William became uncomfortably aware of his surroundings. He grew up in this town, spending his days working and adventuring in every niche of the area. For an eighteen year old, his journey of life was monotonous. He endeavoured to peregrinate and advance his life- but his next journey was one that caused a nauseous, yet prideful feeling in the pit of his stomach.…

    How could he just treat us all like we were cattle as if it was nothing? The speedometer crept up to 60 miles per hour. Didn’t he care that people everywhere were starving? How could he do this? When he was elected he promised that he would Make America Great Again. 70 miles per hour. I had to get to the rally. We needed change, we could be that change. 80 miles per hour. My thoughts were interrupted as my eyes caught the reflecting glow of red and blue lights paint the night sky behind me. Crap. I pulled over and turned off the car, ready to feed the officer behind me a great line about how my grandmother was on her death bed and wanted me and only me to be at her side. My eyes shifted and glanced to the side mirror, the officer straightened out his already tucked in uniform and smoothed his hands over his hair as he made his way from his cruiser. Great, I thought. I wonder how many reprimands this stiff is gonna write me up for. My record already had 14 points on it for picketing, 6 more and I’d be in real trouble. He knocked on the window…

    since people who hate him truly despise him and those who like him really like him. This candidacy seems to divide more than it connect and that’s something that truly scares me. I don’t like that people are getting violent over someone not wanting Trump in office and vice versa. It’s truly a scary thing. This election will not only effect the millions of Americans, but also people like me, the fifteen year olds who don’t get a say in the election. Since, I am under eighteen I can’t vote, this makes me have to put my trust into the adults of America. I have to hope that they make the right choice and so this fighting that I see on the news, and the divides that are happening from this scares me. There is power in knowledge though, so I guess I would rather know what’s going on as compared to not knowing. Although, I do hope that the choices made by the people of this country, of this place I call home are correct. I myself don’t care for Donald Trump and don’t want him in office, but again, I am going to hope that if he is elected, the people of America made the right…

    Before starting this unit, I did not think about my writing skills or did not know everyone has a writer's identity. Initially, I did not realise emailing or texting a friend would be considering writing. I just saw it as a way to socialise with others. Having read subject content, I now understand when I construct email I consider my audiences, reflect on my writing and also editing, which are stages in the writing process as Cremin and Myhill (2012) explain. Additionally, I have discovered that participating in personal writing has helped me to develop and nurture my creative literacy. Furthermore, the personal writing task has helped me learn how to employ strategies to produce a creative piece that expresses my inner thoughts and feelings. Having applied myself…
