For some, writing may be just
a simple mechanic reaction or an unconscious process that does not require any
inspiration at all. Well, this is not
the case for me; it has never been, and will never be something that I can just
sit down and do it. I mean I need some
sort of inspiration to do so, since I have been in bed for the last six days I have
pretty much been without energy and unable to think. For instance, while I was trying to keep up with
our teaching of composition class readings, I read that writing should be
considered as an organic process. Is this
mean that we really do not need that inspirational drive that I am talking
about? Regardless of what experts may object
I really believe that we need a certain degree of motivation in order to even
start thinking on putting our thoughts on a piece of paper. I am the type of person that finds hard to
know about what I want to write, it is only until I physically see the written
text that I notice what I really wanted to say.
In most instances, this may represent a huge problem, especially if we
are writing for a specific audience. Isn’t
that a writer can say whatever in a text?
This is one of my greatest concern regarding my literacy autobiography,
in that; I am not sure if I should have in mind the type of audience I will be
writing for. However, I can safely
assume that my first, and probably the most important audience for now, will be
my professor and my classmates. Which
make feel nervous, but at the same time I feel that they will not only read my
text, but also read the underlying context of the circumstances I will be
describing in my work.
I'm assuming that my readers are people who might be different from me in all aspects but one: We share a desire to help the next generation of students become better communicators. We may disagree about how to make that desire a reality, but I assume readers will be sufficiently open-minded to consider what I have to say. Also, I like getting to know about people on a deeper level, and I assume my readers do too.
