Thus far in WRT, I have already tried things in different genres that I never have before in a writing class. Such as reading a story and writing my own microfiction inspired from it. I focused my tweets to figure out something that meant a lot to me that I could make into a narrative. And I wrote poems based on my own stories. To be honest, it has been a little tough so far, but I have enjoyed the challenge. I used Twitter in a previous class for a kind of narrative as well, but I don't think I really made it the heart of the assignment during that class. I wound up with a pretty decent story, but I am definitely more excited about what is going to happen with my new, upcoming twitterive for WRT. In regard to the poetry from the last blog, I will admit it is not my best, and this also made me realize that I need to be more descriptive in my tweets, especially if I am using them for generative purposes. I never realized how convenient Twitter really is. I can almost use it as a writing journal to jot down ideas throughout the day. But I just have to make sure my tweets are descriptive and full--not sketchy and lacking, so I'm going to work on that. I am looking forward to the rest of this class because I do see improvement in my process as a writer already. I see myself looking at things differently, and I am eagerly awaiting to see where that will take my future blogs and upcoming assignments. I am hopeful, and that is a good feeling to have as a writer.
