I think of myself as a writer. I think all people are writers in their own way. We all write in various forms everyday when we text, email, or communicate with other people. As a college student I am fortunate enough to be able to write both formally and informally. When I text my friends or share a post on Facebook, my tone is extremely informal and lackadaisical  because my intended audience isn’t one that cares so much about my writing having a proper style. However, when I write a paper for class or send an important e-mail, I am sure to structure my writing in a way that clearly states my thoughts and ideas and emulates a form that represents a serious tone. My favorite form of writing is formal essays for class. Maybe it’s narcissistic of me, but I enjoy writing in a way that makes me feel educated. I feel like it causes people to take you more seriously when you can write in a manner that reflects your intelligence.
