shitty first drafts

     In the work "Shitty First Drafts,"  I learned how not everything one writes is going to be perfect, or even comprehensible at first. The sheer thought of someone even reading my unintelligible work scares everyone and not just me.  Judgement plays a huge factor but we forget that our writing is malleable and can be fixed, changed, edited and more.  Furthermore, only a small portion of writers can write an amazing work right then and there; it takes time.  Reading this selection brought awareness that not all my works, if not any, are going to start off how I want them too: it takes many trials and errors.  The first draft is the basis towards something even greater.

  1. Hi Victoria, I understand how scary one may feel when being vulnerable and sharing their unfinished work. Hopefully we'll develop some sense of comfort throughout this semester.
