Progress Report
Nov. 24th, 2008 09:18 pmI'm 1/3 of the way through my technical writing course.
Four quizzes. All 100%.
The last one was about grammar and punctuation, which is one of my strengths. I've always been captivated, not just by English literature, but by the English language itself and the way it changes with the times. I collect style guides. Who does that? Really? I'm just a word geek. A punctuation geek. A grammar geek. (And yes, I am deliberately writing in sentence fragments. Not acceptable in an academic paper, say, but perfectly fine in creative writing.)
I think I may have found a class on PR/Marketing to be a little more useful, because that is still requires a more creative style of writing than technical writing does. But maybe I can take that class later.
