Introduction

Hello everyone!

I’m Dorathy Dotson, a freshman college student currently going to George Fox University in Newberg, Oregon. I’m majoring in English with an emphasis in Creative Writing. This blog is an assignment for my Writing 200 class- some of my posts will be responses to prompts, and others will vary from my random musings on life to little creative writing bits. It depends on how I feel. However, it will always be something in the neighborhood of new and interesting.

I have always been interested in writing. Since I was a little kid, I would write everything from picture books to recipe books to straight up novels. Of course, since I was young, nothing was particularly good. But I’ve learned and grown, so while they’re still not very good, I’d like to think that my writing is improving. That’s part of what this blog is for.

Though this may be an assignment for a class, I’m planning to use this for all it is worth. I’ve always struggled with sharing my writing, and never found the idea of a blog appealing, but now that I’m being made to do it I’m going to go all in and try to learn as much as I can. Any of you who read this assortment of miscellaneous and confusing words will have to bear with me and learn with me as well. Who knows, maybe I’ll continue using it after the semester is over.

I’m working on my writing skills, so don’t expect too much, but if you want to see some interesting thoughts, hot takes, and the occasional bit of writing growth, then this is probably a good place!

Cheers,

Dorathy
