Journal #3

"The Pen is Mightier than the Sword"

Writers have an extraordinary potential to change people's minds and to create revolutions. Reflect upon some of the radical changes that have been wrought by such texts as The Declaration of Independence, Uncle Tom's Cabin, and The Communist Manifesto. What issues or topics are you interested in exploring in your writing? What changes do you feel are worth making?

I can say I’m a very rounded guy when it comes to interest of topics. I am heavily involved with sports, so I enjoy reading any athletic articles or sports journals. I have also read the twilight saga, which most people find strange apparently. I suppose being an athlete most people didn’t expect me to be reading those types of books. I don’t really care about the issues or topics, as long as it can keep my attention towards it, that’s all that matters. Another thing most people don’t know is that I also enjoy to write music. I don’t play any instruments, but I enjoy writing rap, yes rap. I like the rhythm and rhyming needed for it to sound good, its just another thing that interests me. Some changes I think that are worth making is in order for my writing to get better I should probably start to read more. I don’t read very often and if I did I think it would help me write a lot more, and expand my vocabulary.
