When I was younger I tended to write more about animals or whimsical things like fairies. I actually really enjoyed writing poetry and short stories, although I was far more concerned about my poetry rhyming than it actually making sense. Now that I look back on it, my short stories weren’t all that bad. The one I wrote about the fairy that overcomes monsters that steal her magic wand was actually pretty decent. It wasn’t filled with enhanced vocabulary but the storyline was pretty fluid and didn’t jump around too much.

When I got into middle school I discovered that poetry didn’t necessarily have to rhyme or have perfect form. My stories began making more sense and my vocabulary enhanced dramatically.

In high school I learned how to write research papers and document sources using the MLA format, nothing really creative there. However, I kept writing poetry throughout my public school years because it was an important way to express myself. = =
