One of the things I hate about writing is that there are no correct answers. No paper will ever be “right”. No essay will ever be “the best.” No word will ever be “perfect.”   However, this just means that things can only get “better.” And that’s one of the things that I love about writing. No matter where you start, there is always room for better. So here is my attempt. My name is Steven Sreng and I am a second year here at UCSB. In WP1 I explore myself as a writer and offer a view into the background that leads me to my writing today. In WP2, I found a topic of interest to do further research and attempt to give insight on the topic. And with help of my peers, my professor, many articles on writing, and plenty of nights spent editing here is the final product. Enjoy.
