Blog Opinion

In my opinion the purpose of this blog is to become comfortable with different platforms in writing. When writing online you have many tools at your dispense, you can access dictionaries, thesauruses, or anything you might need to better your writing. While in a classroom setting you don't always have the sources, or feel comfortable looking the answer. Speaking of comfortability, I don't really know how I feel about others reading my blog, I am not the type to share their writing with others. With an audience reading my thoughts I may approach them differently than I would if I were just writing for personal benefit. Writing is something I think everyone should know, it is an art, without great authors we wouldn't be enjoying our favorite books, shows, or movies. With social media having us broadcast our daily routines/thoughts, we utilize our writing skills almost daily or hourly. Our writing skills on social media is something that represents us, if we have poor grammar and cannot spell simple words, that may change the way people view us intellectually. Developing stronger writing skills will hopefully help me excel in my career. I could post a well-written article about achieving a certain hair color and build a stronger clientele. Writing is in our daily lives, there is no really no way of avoiding it.

  1. I totally agree with you when you said "you can use thesaurus, dictionaries, etc" to make your vocab broader and to sound nicer. I think I said something similar actually! I also like your background! It's blue! My fav. Lololo.

  2. I like how you mentioned social media, because with all the new iphones and laptops out, social media is becoming popular even in the younger ages. I know several 10 year olds who have an iPhone. It is becoming the new stage of the generation and it forces people to write even though they don't think of it that way.

  3. I liked how you intertwined social media in your blog because this day and age it seems like everyone is on some kind of social media. Most of our social media websites we can get a lot about a person just by how they write.
