TOW #27 TOW Reflction

This year has been one of growth and new experiences. I believe that from my original TOWs I have changed as a writer for the better.

I feel as though that I have steadily progressed as a writer. I have been able to write with more detail. I am able to get to the point and back up that point with few words. I have been able to keep my TOWs focused and organized. In the first few TOWs that I wrote I would begin very broad and then try to get specific. This however was not always the case as many times I ended up going off course. IN my later TOWs I started specific and moved to broader areas.

I think I have mastered putting the right amount of detail into my TOW. I feel as though I have not overflowed the TOW with quotes and I have also not made it full of just my thoughts in the TOW. I have made the TOWS a mixture of my analysis and quotes or aspects from the certain pieces that I analyzed.

I believe that I still need to improve on my introduction and conclusion. I began with weak introduction and conclusion paragraphs, and have slowly improved them. I still think, however, that they could be a lot better than they are now. They could be a little more broader and the conclusion paragraph could leave the reader with a better thought at the end of the TOW.

I think that my analysis essay greatly improved from this exercise. If it had not been for these TOWs I think that I would have weaker analysis essays.  These exercises allowed me time to think and work on the aspects of the analysis essay that I thought needed to be worked on.
