I don't enjoy writing very much. It's not something I would want to choose as a job. It amazes me how some people can write these huge long books that we read today! I don't think I could ever do that. I have a hard enough time thinking of 250 words for this blog post. But when I do get around to writing I like to write in a light, humorous style. If I get too serious I feel weighed down. I have the most fun writing when I can write about something happy. Even if I'm not writing about something happy I still try to keep the tone of my voice light. I struggle sometimes, and did a little in my op-ed, with being to casual in a way that seems to detract from my authority. But I like making jokes and trying to tell funny stories that a reader will find interesting. With op-eds I think having that kind of voice is good because it's interesting and it can keep readers involved in your paper. When we get to the other papers for this class they are probably gonna be more serious and I'll have to find a good serious voice so people will think I have something good to say. If I had to choose between writing op-eds for the rest of my life or writing research papers I would definitely go with op-eds. I like expressing myself in an easy, light way. But good thing I won't have to make that choice! I don't want to spend the rest if my life writing.
