My Writerly Biography

            My name is Jerann White. I come from Belton, Missouri. My experiences with reading and writing are not bad. In high school, my English teacher’s did not enforce to importance on reading. I read books and wrote poems outside the classroom.  Then my 1st year in college at Longview Community College, I found that the English teacher was the same way.  All we did work on was grammar. I transfer to MWSU last fall and the English class was better prepared.  I found myself doing more reading and writing in the classroom.  I was a little sacred at first but as the class went on, I found it not as bad. What my classmates and professor need to know about me is that I don’t write my drafts in order. I sometimes start in the middle.  Then beginning followed by the conclusion. My strengths are ideas and being able to free hand my papers. My weaknesses are the thesis to a paper as a writer. However, as a reader my weakness is being able to relate to the story and comprehension. These practices excite me because I’m able to write down my thoughts and voice my opinion.
