I feel my writing style depends on what I’m
writing. I may act different at a Friday night party or a football game than I
do at church, both ‘Tatiana’s’ are me. I don’t only have one attribute or
trait: dancer, passionate, reverent. The same goes with my writing. When writing
my opinion editorial I think my style is more directed to reaching out to the
emotions of the readers. Addressing such a serious subject, I like the readers
to get a sense of what I feel and hope to evoke emotion in them as well. With
some writing styles I am very descriptive with my imagery. I like the reader to
be able to clearly depict what I am writing about. As for length I am generally
pretty concise with making my point. I have a very hard time writing long (over
two pages in my head) papers almost always doing the bare minimum. Even though
I don’t consider myself a good writer, it’s never been a strength of mine, I do
write with all my heart. Whether it is an OpEd or a research paper about nutrition
with tons of statistics, you better believe it will have a bit of me in it.
You're how post was great and so honest! I love that you said even though you don't consider yourself a good writer (which I beg to differ just from reading this post) you still give it your all. That is inspiring.
ReplyDeleteJust reading this made me want to be a better writer. Thanks for inspiring me
ReplyDeleteAllowing different aspects of your personality to shine through whatever topic you write about is a really freeing perception of writing. Sometimes I feel like I have to talk the same always, and work within the bounds of my own writing "hand print" per say, but it is so freeing to remember to look at it the way you see it-- just showing different parts of myself in what I write. Thanks!
