Difficulty of Writing

I've never liked writing. Probably never will. I have had the same difficulties in my writing from when I was a freshman, up until today. The main problem I have when writing is finding motivation to write. The part I hate about writing is after I'm done with it, having to go back to edit. Once I'm finished writing my paper, I'm finished mentally and really don't want to write anymore. There is no fun in writing, zero fun. I've always been a pretty good writer, but there is always room to improve.

"The difficulty of literature is not to write, but to write what you mean"

Chris Luke

My name is Chris. I go to Anderson. I hate English, but we all have to do it. I can't wait until school is over. That will be the day. The most boring sport to watch in the world is baseball, yet I play it. Its more fun than it looks. Actually wait, I take that back, there are a few sports that are even more boring than baseball, like tennis, golf, dominoes, checkers, chess, backgammon, soccer, racket ball, GOLF, golfing, and watching grown men hit a ball around a field trying to make it into a hole, also known as golf.
