I have several strengths as a writer, but I have several weaknesses as well that seem to far outweigh the positives. The first problem I have is volume, I can never seem to write enough, even if it's something I'm passionate about. My length never seems to match my enthusiasm or the amount of required work. During our ten-minute exercises in class, I never seem able to punch out more than half a page, which is downright pitiful considering some of the cool ideas I have that never seem to be able to make it to paper. Another thing I have to work on is variety. I tend to write the same way every time I sit down to write and it may get boring for readers when I work in this fashion. I do seem to be able to write about a diverse number of topics and make it interesting however, so I feel that doesn't really need any outside improvement from me, although every skill can technically be expanded upon infinitely. My tone is always the same though, I always use a serious tone because it's most appealing to me, but I probably should expand my repertoire and use different tones to be more entertaining.
