Simply Me

The question is what have I learn from taking this class? Or even was I able to broaden my horizon on things that I have already known. I would say to this is not really.
I did learn a new writing style that I liked, but I have written that way before but I was never given the proper name for it. A lot of what was talked about was things that I have written, but never cared to finish some of my stories. One of the things we were to write was to have a flashback at some point in it. I have stories with this in it and I thought that was easy and went right to it. I even helped my old roommate start her paper for English because it had to start out as a flashback. So, I have been writing these kinds of things for a long time, which is probably why I took the class.
I think the only thing that I would need to work on is being more open in class and getting in one some of the things we discussed in class. Though to me, that kind of thing is not really needed to become a good writer. Yeah people might want you to take about the book or story you have written, but you do not have to be so perfect on it and go off knowing exactly what you are going to say. You can be a good writer and you may never get on TV or have a best seller, but that does not mean you are not a good writer.
One thing that I did not learn anything from was doing the work shopping. It might have helped in some way, but a lot of people wrote the same way as others. A lot of people did poems and most did them with a rhyming theme, which after a few of them just made it boring and I really did not pay attention. I did all the work to it and wrote my opinion on things. Some people, and I was one of them, did not want to change their piece. I believe they just wanted to know what people thought of it.
So with this being my self assessment, I would say I did okay in the class. There were a few things I could work on, but overall I enjoyed this class a lot.
