Blog Post Assignment #2
Since my learning of the proper ways to write an essay, I've noticed that in some areas I am wrong. I am mostly struggling with my usage of the word "you" in various parts of my writings. In an informal essay, it would be okay to use it as much because I am informing someone of how to do something or stating something to that person. Yet, in a formal essay, the correct way to approach a topic, would be to state things in general. Such as by using words like "one" or "he or she" without directlyplan ting it toward on person. I plan to get better at this by inserting different words in place of the word "you" that could be written for a general audience. In other words, I am over all a pretty good writer. My writings provide many important details about the main topics that I discuss. The structures of my writings are well thought out and my transitions are well executed. With time and dedication, I will only progress.
