The End is Here

I think that the most memorable thing I have learned through my time in this course is that writing is much more free form than I previously thought. There is no set structure for every single type of paper out there, one can simply start writing and if they are able to pull all their points together, it works. In the past, I always found myself sticking to the same format, same paragraph length, and always answering the same questions. I guess I felt what works in the past will also work in the future, but I was wrong. Times change and so does writing style, with the coming of the internet, a drastic change has occurred. No longer can an instructor say that a certain type of writing can be suitable for most, if not all situations. Writing is an art, and do be good at it involves a great level of creativity. One of the most artistic elements is the transition, also one of the most important. With this, a writer must be able to smoothly change from one topic to another, while maintaining a steady flow in the text. I feel in the past I have struggled in this area, but this class has really helped me to take a new approach to transitions and writing as a whole. I no longer see writing as an arduous task meant for pure torture, I see it as a way to convey my opinion and let my voice be heard. Writing is no longer just about research, it can be a passion for any normal person that can be shared with others. With the help of the internet, people can publish a work whenever they want about whatever they want for absolutely no cost at all.
