Writing With A Inside Helper

Writing, for me that was simple, but when I came to the 8 grade I got a rude awakening. I found out that what I thought writing was and what it really was. A teacher of mine named Mr. Locker made me write so much to the point that I hated it, before I use to like writing, I would do it for fun,"NOT NO MORE". This year I think was the most interesting year of writing I have ever had. I have learned so much from my teacher. Now I'm able to write a successful sentence or paragraph. When I started Mr. Locker's class you see could that I needed a lot of help. Their was a lot of words I did not know like transition words and prepositions. Now I know what these words are and where they are needed. I have also learned the purpose of these words.


One little thing you might find kind of weird or scary is that when I'm writing I have a little person in my head that reads over what I wrote as I go. It is like a self check system or like your conscience that guides you, I have never gave it a name, so it is not like I talk to him. The reason that I have him is so that I am sort of not the only person reading my writing. So through out this school year I have improved a lot in my writing and my self check systems. I have really appreciated what my teacher has taught me and will not forget it. So now in the future you can be sure of one thing; that what I write will be something you will want to read.

Comment from Dackerz & Lortor:
I think thats funny that you have a little person in your head, Dackerz thinks so too.
Dackerz:
I also think you should give it a name! It would be WAY easier to refer to the little person in your head

Wyatt - I, too, have a little voice inside my head... when I write AND when I read too. This is a good sign. It means you're thinking about your thinking, which will only help to make you a stronger writer.
