Weekly Reflection 1

This week I have learned a lot of writing techniques that I never knew about. In class we leaned how to condense a long quote by adding brackets on the left and right side with dots in the middle . Doing this will allow one to cut off parts of a quote we do not need in our paper.Or if we must include a quote with more then four lines, then we make it a block quote. We also learned how to avoid making our writing sound too cliche by using certain phrases and not using others, Something I have been really good about in my writing is using signal phrases before my quotes. Also, I am good with incorporating signal phrases before my quotes. This week I have learned how to perfect my writing. Honestly, I can say my writing has improved.
