Lamont's Essay

My writing process, to me, is long. I'm a procrastinator, so I normally don't start a paper till it's almost time to turn in. I end up sitting at my computer for a few hours at a time typing it out. I don't like outlines. I usually form ideas while I'm writing. When I look over the paper I usually end up revising a quarter to half of it. I like to use the thesaurus, which adds to the hours I spend at the computer.
I don't like my writing. I love to read and sometimes I tend to read a lot. I don't think my writing is that impressive or terrific. I find it bland and boring. I don't see how blogging will change how I write. I've never blogged before, so I'm treating this like a paper.

Writers become better as they continue to read great writing. If you like a certain writer's tone or attitude, try mimicking it, maybe you'll find a fresh and exciting voice that is all your own in the process.
