Web Writing

What I am most proud of with my writing process is my revision process. This course has helped me develop a well thought out plan when it comes to revising my writing and that is what I am most proud of. I learned that it is important to get a second opinion and that it is nearly impossible for something to be perfect on your first try. Therefore, what I am most proud of with my writing process is my willingness to write and revise until I am fully content with my work.

What I like most about my learning is my willingness and perseverance. This semester has been extremely difficult and overwhelming, but amidst the difficulty I have truly learned and retained so much within each of my courses. Even when I lacked motivation I tackled my assignments with every ounce of effort I had. Therefore, what I like most about my learning is my eagerness to learn despite any hardships.

Content is the message and everything that comes with it. It can be just about anything in any type of media. Content, in simple terms, is what is being represented within a message (what the message is really all about). Content helps you connect with your audience and build trust with consistency. Overall, content is what draws in an audience and keeps them interested.

Communication is important for every aspect of life. It's the way we. give, receive, and understand information. Good communication starts with listening, but it also consists of speaking and writing. Clear communication allows a message to be easily understood and not misinterpreted, which is the goal for every message.

Creativity is using your imagination to generate original ideas. These ideas can be used to create things, solve problems, communicate with others, and entertain. Creativity occurs when you are open to new ideas and trying new things. Overall, creativity is important because it allows us to be original and broaden our perspectives.

My favorite snacks for staying motivated while I work on all of my school work are barbecue baked lay's, carrots and ranch, and frozen grapes.

Do you think this title page is boring? Should I try to come up with something more creative that will draw the attention of my audience? What do you think?

Do you think this slide is necessary to include in my HTWG? I was told that I should try to cut down on how many slides I included to make it easier for a content creator to reference so I'm trying to figure out what can be removed. Most of my other slides include tips and sample content, so I guess out of all of them this is the one I think is least important. What do you think?

What should I change about this to make it more obvious that it is a sample post that I created myself? Should I change the title of the slide from Sample Post to something else? If so, is there anything else I should change about this slide to make it easier for a content creator to use to generate their own posts?

Although I was unmotivated at first, I think content creation went fairly well for me once I forced myself to just start. I think the hardest part was planning what I wanted to do and how to bring those ideas to light. I have learned a lot about myself and tips and tricks for creating my own content in the future throughout this process of content creation. Overall, the satisfaction of completing something that felt hard and impossible has significantly paid off. I would encourage others who are struggling to get started, to just start. I know it sounds plain and simple, but truly a small start is still a start and you're getting closer and closer to your goal.

An element of my content I am most proud of is this image that I took for one of my sample posts. I was a little discouraged to try and take these pictures to use within my guide, but I am really happy with how this photo/editing came out.
