Causes of stress
Thinling about writing

Very few, if any, people write effortlessly. Whether you're a novelist, an academic, or a student, writing takes time, effort and commitment. Knowing what aspects of writing cause you stress or delay your progress is an important step in improving how effectively you write.

Prepare a blog post of approximately 400 words where you use your own experience and the knowledge you acquired from the readings in the previous sections to answer the following:

  1. What is the most difficult aspect of writing for you (e.g. getting started, organising your thoughts, being confident, etc.)?
  2. Explain how you think the PWR method can help you overcome that difficulty.

Remember to tag (Wordpress) or label (Blogger) your blog post using the course tag: What is academic writing?/enga102/tag

Note that you can also record your reflections in a written journal, if you prefer, but sharing your insights with your classmates means that you can trigger a discussion that may lead to a deeper understanding as we can all benefit from each other's experience.
