Micaela Sawdey In my writing experience, I’ve written speeches, narratives, and stories for entertainment. This past year in high school, I took the speech class that they offer once a year. In this class, I wrote three major speeches. I’ve written a special occasion speech, an expository speech, and a persuasive speech. All of which received close to perfect scores. The special occasion speech, I’d have to say was my best work. I wrote about a subject that hits close to home, that I knew the most about. I wrote this speech was one someone would give at a military boot camp graduation. I’ve also written many narratives and made up stories as well. My goals to advance my writing this summer include learning a better style to write papers, improving my writing skills, and anything that Tom is willing to teach me. I’m always open to new ideas, or ways to improve my work. After the summer program is over, I want to be able to write without difficulty in my paper styles, and different ways to write a story or paper.
