Introduce yourself, both as a person and as a writer. Introduce yourself and describe your writing experiences thus far in an informal but detailed letter to the instructor. What do you feel are your strengths and weaknesses as a writer? What is your personal approach to writing? What do you like or hate about writing? You may also want to consider the quotes in the first chapter of our textbook (and also inside the front cover of the textbook, if you have the 9th or 8th edition). Which of these feel true for you? Which of these seem contrary to your experiences with (or opinions of) writing?
