This article
stuck out to me the most because I felt like I related to it more than the
others. Personal literacies can be used in your writing. She felt unsure of how
to use her personal life into her writing.
When you write about your own experiences you learn more about yourself
and become a better writer through that. Writing can be an emotional experience
and understanding yourself better can help you be more successful in your
writing. Your personal experiences lead
to something bigger than you might realize. By thinking of the first times you
were writing and reading bring to recollection your earliest memories of the
art of language. I can remember reading young children’s books in preschool and
learning cursive in second grade. By remembering those things I can grow as a
writer in personal literacies.
Reflective writing is key in developing writing skills. I'm glad to see you realized this after reading Hamilton's article. Good job!
