Frederick's+Paper+1+Reflection

This paper was not too challenging for me to write about and complete. For the first time in a long time I actually did not mind doing an english paper. I know that the reason I did not mind doing this paper is because I was asked to write about something that is a part of my daily life. Video Games for me is not a hard topic to write about. Also, it did not take me a lot of time to do this paper because it was about something that I can talk for a long time about. I feel like I had an advatage in writing this paper. Anyone who knows about and plays video games would have an advantage in writing this paper because the writing would come off the top of the head. Overall the process of writing this paper was simple and I hope that this is the way all of my papers for this class will go.

When writing this paper I actually just sat down and started writing down whatever came to my head about video games. I pretty much did a free write just so I could have somewhere to start. My actual pre-writing for this paper came from the paragraph that I previously wrote for class about video game importance. The pre-writing definitely sparked the writing and was a good basis for me to start off with. The rough draft writing was simpler to complete because of the prewriting that I did. After the pre-writing, everything just flowed.

My advice to anyone in the same position I am is to just write. Write about your opinion and what you know about. It is not too difficult, all you need to do is focus on your task at hand and you will be alright with an assignment like this. If you are a person who does not play and is not into video games, then this might be a little harder for you. Trust me though, video games are very popular and are growing in popularity everyday, so doing a little research for this paper would definitely be quick and easy because there is tons of information on this topic.
