Pieces of Writing this year

After writing various assignments for English class this year, I feel like I have grown stronger as a writer. My worst piece of writing was the personal narrative at the beginning of the year. That was a miss instead of a hit. I didn't understand how to use imagery effectively and struggled with "showing, not telling" writing. As I learned more and wrote my research paper, I think I did well. I provided strong arguments to help my thesis and structured it to the best of my ability.

I also believe that I did the best I could have on my Lord of the Flies writing assignment. I described how the belief in the fictional beast created so much conflict during the story. I used evidence from the book to back up my thesis, much like in my research paper. It was definitely a hit instead of a miss. Overall, I am satisfied with my growth as a writer this year and I am ready for sophomore year writing.
