I have always enjoyed writing. I like to sit down and put words on paper in a way that is creative and expressive. I considered majoring in journalism but decided against it when I became interesting in accounting. Accounting will require me to have professional writing skills that I will learn in this class. One of the many reasons I enjoy writing is because I had an excellent English teacher in the fourth grade that made writing fun and exciting. She gave me a good foundation that made it easy to write any type of paper. I have enjoyed all my other English classes since. I also had a great teacher for ENGL 101 and 102 which made writing that twelve-fourteen page research paper a piece of cake. Sometimes I feel like writing a book, but I get about four words on a page and I give up.
Of course, all the writing I did in the past was descriptive and wordy. I have never really had to de-clutter my work as much as the book described. I have never been told that I should use fewer words rather than more, so this class should be a good place for me to start creating and perfecting my professional writing style.
