Blog Post 3: Writing Style

While going through school and throughout my life i've tried to establish a writing style for myself. I believe, i still have not quite yet found it. In my high school, almost all of the papers that i was tasked to write were formal essays where expressing yourself or showing personality was frowned upon. Because of this, i believe my voice, what drives a writing style, was swept under the rug. Although, within the past 1-2 years, i have taken up some of my own personal writing habits. I took up journaling (maybe more considered sketching with an occasional paragraph), and decided to create a blog. Through these outlets, i believe i have been able to try and find myself as a writer. The way i express my thought processes through writing is constantly changing as i learn and read more. However, there are some things that i do like to incorporate. I tend to lean more towards a sarcastic sense of humor, or dry humor, and shy away from blatantly obvious funny statements. I love when you're reading a piece that you have to go back and reread to make sure it actually was supposed to be funny. I also really enjoy using a lot of punctuation to create a certain sound when my sentences are read.
