There are different kinds of writing that you do, with some of them requiring more time than others. For example, writing a journal entry can take the form of free writing when essentially you just sit down and write usually to focus your thoughts or to brainstorm ideas to later develop an essay.

Essays usually require you to present your ideas in a logical and consistent way, that's why it requires more planning and more preparation.

In any case, though, you need to revise and edit your work before publishing it.

In your entry describe what difficulties you have when composing something. Also, give an example of a case when doing a writing assignment is easier for you and explain why.

Be as specific as possible and provide examples to suppor your answer.

Post your answers in the blog by Wednesday so that during Thursday you could read some of your peers' responses and comment on at least one of them.

Also, take a look at the dictionaries you use for your everyday studies. Make a list of them and think which of them you would like to make a presentation about in class during this semester. More details in class.
