SCREENSHOTS OF EXERCISE 2- Screenshots of my Prompt 2

QUESTIONS

*Do you see patterns?- I found that I do see patterns, I tend to repeat myself a lot, But I can see where automatically I try not to use the same exact wording that I used before when I was talking about the same ideas.

*Do you rely on certain devices more than others?-I feel like the most two common devices that I use in my writing, especially in this piece is, again the repetitive one, and the use of “however”. I always want to use some from of “but” when I am trying to either combine my sentences together or when I am transitioning.

*Are there passages that are hard to follow?- Right off the bat I would say no because I am over confident in my writing…that is until I read it out loud to myself. I find myself going back and trying to read things but they don’t make any sense. Or, like this time, when I was reading out loud to myself I noticed, “wow I feel like I just said that”. This helped me, I made notes of when that would happen and now I can go back and re-word those sentences better so that they don’t so they don’t sound so redundant. That “repetitive but not repetitive” tool I feel will really help me iron out the wrinkles in my paragraphs that I feel overlap each other and sound the same. With rearranging the sentences, I can keep the concept of the same ideas but still read them as different.
