I'm not sure if I can attribute this to this class, but I've been more conscious of my own experiences in terms of what I write, this semester. Most of my writing in the last few months concerns thematic correlations to my personal stories, which I haven't really done before. I suppose there's a sort of vanity in that, but it seems to work well if you make a point. I've started doing this a lot with poetry, and I really like what's come of it. At the very least, I like where I'm going with this.
This will sound obvious, and in many ways it is, but putting my personal experiences into poetry is pretty cathartic. I would have expected it to be, but I'm just putting that out there.
One thing I will attribute to this class is how I've handled these personal experiences in poetry form. I don't think I would have been able to convey them as well otherwise.
