My Writing Timeline

August 24, 1992: I was born
July 1994: I began to scribble on paper, that my mom would hang up on the refrigerator.
June 1995: My parents taught me how to write my name.
August 1997: I began to learn more about letters.
August 1998: I started first grade and began to be able to write the alphabet. 
October 1999: Writing stories became a hobby of mine. 
January 2002: My first story was entered into a school contest and won second place out of the whole grade.
March 2004: I received my first 100% on a book report I had written.
August 2006: My first essay was assigned. I struggled a lot to get it done but it was worth all the hard work because I had received an A at the end.
November 2007: My teacher has assigned an essay on a book that I could not get through. I was bored and unmotivated so I had received my first D on a writing assignment.
December 2008: My junior year of high school we were all assigned a huge research paper. Fortunately, we were able to pick the topic so I picked one that interested me and did a lot of research. I was so happy when  I got my paper back and received an A.
August 2009: I had to start applying for colleges, which meant I had to began writing my college essays. They obviously paid off because I got into my first school of choice. GO KNIGHTS!
August 2010: I wrote my first college paper, it was a totally different format that I was used to but it was refreshing trying something new.

  1. Good start to the timeline, Taylor, but get more specific. What were the subjects you wrote about? What was the story you wrote?
