Myself and English

Becca Matt,
This is my first "blog" so I'm not quite sure what to write. My last English class was something I just wanted to get through. My instructor was very nice and fallowed my accommodations well. Part of my problem with writing is my spelling and grammar. I use to love to write when I was younger, I would tell my parents to write out what I tell them and we would make storeys together. I have always had large imagination but as I got older I found that writing my storeys was stressful. I always had to have the read, revised, and criticized by others to make them understandable to the reader and therefor it to the magic and spirit out of what I wanted to create. I soon began to dislike writing and disliked others reading my tails even more. I would get so embarrassed to let people look at them in case they would see a misspelled word or rotten grammar.
   
As a result of this my relationship with writing has disintegrated. I write when I must and work hard to meet the requirements that are expected of me. However I do not enjoy the writing process and I only do it because I must. I am sorry if I sound like a martyr or a spoiled child when I explain about my relationship with words but that is how I feel. I want to get my joy for writing back because I have some great tails to spin but as I get older the more worried I have become about my writing flaws. I wish I could get back the confidence of my five year old self that never knew a criticism or critique.
