“What I Need to Know about WRITING AND WRITERS to Become a Better Writer”.

The one thing that i noticed from our presenters and their writing is that all of them, some more to the extent than others seem to follow their passions in their writing. they all seemed to mention the fact that one must write about what one wants to write about. I think that they are all right about this. Life is too short to be focusing on something you don't want to do. If i was going to write a good story i would write it on something that I enjoy writing about. So my question is "why do people write" is it their passions? I want to do my project on this because too many times have I been writing for a school  project and thought to myself "I hate this so much." Other times I free write and feel like my writing can take my mind anywhere. Any memory can be revisited and any dream elaborated on.

The speaker today was interesting. She stressed writing about you passions and writing about things that you liked. She kept my attention for most of the presentation, and I think most of the class as well based off the amount of question asked. 1/17 weaker (***)
