First Three Weeks


In these three weeks I learned a lot of about how to become an effective writer. At the beginning I am not interesting about writing, I always scare about writing, now I fell enjoy when I write something. Every week I improve my writing. After three weeks I found become a good writer I have to also become a good reader otherwise it is very hard to effective writer without reading.
            I read three very interesting and the important reading writing. The first was “The Phenomenology of Error” by Joseph M Williams, which helps me to identify the grammatical error in my writing. Second, “Helping Students Use Textual Sources Persuasively” by Kantz. This reading about how to write some research paper to use good source and the last reading about “Rhetorical Situation And their Constituents” which helps me to know about the rhetorical situation and how to apply in writing as effective easy so that writing looks more strong and power full.           
            Overall these three weeks I learned many things about writing, which are really helps for my writing. Now I am going to apply everything, which I learned so for in, my writing .I will try to apply rhetorical reading strategy, careful about grammar. These all will helps my writing is more powerful. 

Experience about writing a draft

I fell really enjoy when I was writing the first draft. I do not have worry about the grammar, structure and context, which was really good for me. Before I wrote every thing what comes in my mind. Normally when I write something I always careful the context and grammar, but this time I wrote completely different ways. Compare to these two ways I found the second ways is better for me. I realized writing first draft is a giving some ideas and also give a lot of options to add more effective thought in context. Before I always write one time and finalized the paper, due to that I spent a lot of time to check context and grammar, so my paper have lack of main idea and supporting ideas. Now I like to write anything what comes in my mind, I am worry about spelling, grammar structure main idea, supporting details, and conclusion. In future I will follow the second ways which is writing everything what’s comes on mind, so that I have a lot of time to edit my essays.This helps  me my essay will more effective and powerful.

Rhetorical Situation and their Constituents






  1.        After reading  “Rhetorical Situations and Their Constituents” by Keith Grant_Davie, I found a lot of benefit to our reading and writing. First the author explains that Blitzer’s defines rhetorical situation as “The context in which speakers or writers create rhetorical discourse”(Grant-Davie 104). It is a situation which communication takes place also, anyone who wants to communicate something; they have to always analyze the situation. According to Grant-Davie from his essay “Rhetorical Situations and Their Constituents. It has four major components. Which are: exigence, rhetor, audience and constraints. These four components are really helpful to our writing and reading. According to author, rhetor is the person or writer who is responsible for any argument or ideas. Audience is the people who communicate directly with writers. Constraints are the factor in situation where effect the achievement of rhetorical object. These components are really important to us, when we read and write something. If we analyze these things to our reading and writing it helps to develop our critical thinking and effective analyzing power.

Technique of writing

 
When I write something, I usually found a lot of grammars errors. There are many others grammars mistake, but Article and prepositions are the most grammars mistake in my writing. I frequently make these mistakes since I start writing. It is very hard to me figure out my grammars mistakes. I know the rules of grammar, but it is very hard to me apply in my writing. According to Joseph M. Williams’s article from The Phenomenology of Error, I found how grammars are important in writing, no matters how good ideas are. I like his technique to finding the errors from writing. His technique is when we write something we have to give somebody else to read, so that the readers can easily catch the errors .It is very easy way to find the errors. This technique is very useful me. I found that when I turn my papers to the professors, when I get back papers I always found a lot of errors, which is really helpful me to improve my writing skills.
            Constructing errors are very important things. When we construct the errors we have to know where our errors are, which helps to remove these errors. It is very good ways to identify the errors. If we study our errors each by each it will help to these errors are not going to repeat again in our writing.

My greatest strengths and weakness as a writer .

    Different writers have different strengths of writing. In my case, an attractive introduction is my greatest strength of my writing. When I start writing I always try to start attractive ways of introduction. I like to start my introduction some true stories, so that I can catch the reader’s attention. Therefore I spent a lot time for introduction part. Besides the introduction, providing good knowledge and ideas is another strength of my writing. I prefer reading rather than writing. This ability helps me to collect the ideas and knowledge from various fields.
      Going out off topic is my greatest weakness as a writer. When I write something, I have a lot of ideas come on my head. It is very hard for me picking the suitable ideas, so I write whatever comes in my mind. Due to that, my body paragraph is really long and some are short .I could not figure out where I should break up the paragraph and end up with a good conclusion. Sometime I found very difficult to write a conclusion. Most of time I repeat a lot of things in conclusion. I know conclusion should be summery is the entire ideas but It is really hard for me to summarizing whole essays.
        I hope coming days I will improve my writing skills. This semester I am taking an English composition class, which helps me to learn and understand about effective writing. At the beginning of this semester I am so optimistic about my writing. I am always thinking being a Bolger. Now I get this opportunity to start my own Blog. I like to share this Blog to all my friends, so that I will get feedback, which helps me to improve my writing skill as well as its’ gives me encouragement. I hope I will be continuing this my Blog even after this semester.
