Writing

With this course coming to an end I feel that I have learned and accomplished quite a bit. I love to write research-type papers and so, far from being daunted, I was actually really looking forward to the prospect of another writing course. In fact, the other course that I have had this term is Technical Writing. I have to admit that I don't enjoy technical types of writing nearly as well (probably because I'm writing about building sidewalks!) but it's interesting to learn. I am hoping to eventually go into research for nutrition in which case I would have to do a fair amount of technical writing in the form of grant proposals and such, so I figure I had better find out now if I absolutely hate it. I have a feeling that I will like it better when I am writing about something that interesting me and does not involve construction and building codes!

All in all I have really enjoyed the writing that I have done here and look forward to doing much more of it. I hope that I will be able to take a writing course or two that involve analyzing other written works as well, since that is something that I have always enjoyed. I can't wait to do more writing!

  1. Hello Heidi,

    Thanks for the great suggestion. We could look at and analyze other "health and medical" writers in this course. Other students have offered good suggestions as well. I am ready to try new things next term thanks to you all.
