English writing course assignment: Week 1

I do my English writing mostly at work. I create tons of instructions and presentations for different purposes. I write scripts for lessons that I create as an Instructional Designer, I exchange emails and memos with my colleagues, I even pitch ideas to my team lead from time to time.

Writing in English is my bread and butter. I bless the universe for my ability to put words into sentences smoothly and in a precise order that conveys the meaning at its best. Writing serves as a basis for so many professions that it was relatively easy for me to expand my skillset and address the socio-economical challenges in my life.

Actually, I want to be a more creative writer. When writing a piece of documentation, you don’t apply much creativity to it. Your only concern is to convey the application logic and/or business meaning consistently throughout the text. At the same time, I’m fascinated with the mad skills of marketing writers that convey sometimes pretty boring ideas in an astonishing variety of formats so that those ideas start looking engaging.
