Prompt:

Draft and publish a blog post in response to question #2 under Applying and Exploring Ideas on page 829.

There are many ways outside of school where I use my writing skills. I use my writing within grocery list, filling out doctor papers, checklist/task to do, journaling, job applications, texting, and emailing. I learned that there are more things that I write in my everyday life than I thought. I wouldn’t consider the writing as creative, but more a freeing feeling because you know that someone is not going to critique your work. While in school your work is more creative because you want to be able to express and show that you can do something different for an assignment and show the instructor that you can be creative in your work. The two writings can be similar by taking some skill and using them into each style of writing.
