My experience in writing has been interesting because it was never predictable about what assignment I was going to get to write. It is a challenge to create something that grabs the attention of the readers and also makes the point of the topic. But I have always loved the challenges because you realize what you are capable of when you are challenged.

About Love The use of critical thinking is imperative when trying to persuade others. One must effectively use the three types of appeals in order to be successful. I have noticed how Danielle Crittenden and Judy Brady have used the three appeals in their essays “About Love” and “I Want a Wife.” Crittenden and Brady’s use of tone greatly effects how the audience perceives their writing.

another subject. The way you wrote didn’t matter‚ just whether or not you could. ELA was learning how to write sentences and use correct grammar. And that was all you were graded on. Even when you got to writing “essays” in fifth grade‚ the standards were the same. My fifth grade essays consisted of an introduction‚ a body‚ and a conclusion. The introduction and conclusion were basic‚ and the body was a jumbled mess of arguments. Still‚ my report card showed that I was doing well in language. My
