How have you generally started your own writing assignments? What worked and didn’t work for you? Are there any ideas you have for invention in writing that are not in this chapter that you would like to add? What are they, and do you think they could help other students? I usually start by choosing a topic that I am very passionate about. More times than not the more interested in a topic you are, the better you are at writing about it and the more thought you put into it.
Out of the new invention strategies you have learned in this chapter, which do you think would be most helpful as you transition into writing in higher education? Why do you think the invention strategy you choose would work well and in what way do you see yourself using it? Use the speaking voice to influence your writing. when I think of this I think of not letting any other outside voices control how you write. You write how you write and that’s the best way to do it.
