Reflection Prompt: Write an essay in which you reflect on what kind of a writer you were before you entered this course and what kind of a writer you are now. Make sure you answer all of the following questions:
What are three strengths you have as a writer?
What are three things you look for in your papers when you revise them before
submission?
How did you feel about writing before you took this course and how do you feel about writing now?
Which paper do you think was your best? Why?
Which paper forced you to learn the most and/or think the most? Did it challenge you
to think about literature in different ways than you had before you took this
course?
Which paper was your favorite to write, even if it was not the paper on which you earned the highest score?
You should not simply answer each of these questions in a sentence. Think about your answers to these questions, do some prewriting where you answer these questions, then outline a structure for the essay that makes sense given your answers. Write an essay that has an introduction, body paragraphs, transitions between paragraphs, and a conclusion.
It should conform to the guidelines that your syllabus outlines for papers (12pt. Times New Roman font, double-spaced, one-inch margins), and it should conform to guidelines for grammar, punctuation, usage, and citation.
