This essay was a transition for me between the simple five paragraph essay i wrote in high school, and the essays we wrote using "They Say, I Say." I really liked using "They Say, I Say" as sort of a template for my essay. It was a great way to organize my thoughts on the comments of someone else, and the information given. My writing philosophy still stays the same and is applied to everything I write. The new way of writing that I have learned from using "They Say, I Say" is just a way to organize the skills from my writing philosophy.
At the start of Bacon's Rebellion I didn't have a very good understanding about what really went on in this event. Even after the wiki entry, I wasn't 100% confident, but after all the research and critical thinking I had to do to complete this essay I felt that I gained a much better understanding of what really happened. Before this essay I didn't feel like my view on Bacon's Rebellion was correct, but i came to learn that everyone has their own view and it is their interpretation.
My writing philosophy:
~When creating a piece of literature, I try to make it personal and honest. Even if there is an assignment that i have no interest in, i always find a way to put myself into the work. My philosophy is to always state my opinion and use my heart to let the reader know that the words came from me. Your hands may be what write the words on paper, but your heart is what creates the words and put them together to define you. You cant write a worthy paper without using your own personal experiences and prior knowledge.
