Personal Narrative: My Strengths In My Writing

Ever since I was a little boy I have always loved writing and being able to write. I have always had my strengths within my writing but along with those strengths also came a lot of mistakes and weaknesses. If I am suppose to sit here and just list my weaknesses then I would exceed the three to five page limit by about 4 or 5 pages. So thank god that I have the option to list my strengths to try and convince people that I am somewhat of a good writer. So without further ado here is my self assessment essay.
Strengths
I have things that I do really well as a writer and that is what makes the difference between an A or B. One of my strengths is that I add emotion into to my writing. I showed a lot of this in the process of writing my memoir.The
This is one thing that I have really struggled with over the years. Here is an example “I saw a younger kid getting bullied by the older kids for his ability to play sports. Another example is “All the older kids were calling him mean names and telling him that he shouldn't be out there”
(Ab Entry 2 Pg.1). So, I look to improve this weakness over the years, I think I have also taken small baby steps this year with improving this skill.

I really demonstrate this in the ending of my memoir “So my advice is sometimes your kids will make you so mad you think you want to kick them out of the house. At times you need peace over anger because these memories will be the memories you look back at forever”. So here is just one of the many examples on how this has gotten better over my 9th grade year.
My third and final change is a strength that I listed earlier in the paper which is my ability to write a compelling opening paragraph. Even though I listed this as a strength, this is the one area that I have seen most of my growth. I think a good example of this is my opening “Ever since I was a kid I had been trying to decide what my favorite sport was going to be. It had always been a toss up between two of my favorite sports. The only downside was that both of these sports took place in the same season”(Ab entry 6 Pg.1), this is just one of the many examples of a good opening paragraph that I had wrote.
Goals ( Changes I want to
