Improvement is a must

Reading, writing, and analyzing are skills we use daily and we take them for granted. I hope with taking introduction to literature I expect to learn more about writing and analyzing skills that will help me improve my writing that I will need later on in my writing career. Literature to me is something that you read that makes you think about what you’re reading and why it was written; a written piece that the author has put thought into and has meaning to the reader. I am not every enthusiastic about poetry because I always found poetry a bit boring because the authors are usually from a few generations ago or even longer than that. As for fiction and drama I enjoy reading them because they are usually entertaining, they tend to have a good story line and the author has put a lot of thought into their work to end up with a good story. Even authors like Shakespeare that wrote fictional/dramatic stories very long time ago, we (this generation) still enjoy reading their stories because it was well written and has meaning to the readers. I think that the critical thinking that we have to do for our blog posts will help us think of “why” we write things and think the way we do. Simply because we usually don’t think about things before we write it but with this assignment we have to think about why we think what we think and respond by writing it out into our blog. So far this assignment already has me thinking of what we’re going to be reading and how I would approach this course.
