I started by creating a couple of flyers, then we were asked to
create a website. I had a good website,
and the professor really liked the work I did in the class. I cannot remember any of the other Technical
Writing classes or assignments, but I remember enjoying the classes.
I wanted to become a technical writer. I remember telling my father I wanted to
minor in Technical Writing. I am still
trying to figure out how my father became my college advisor. In retrospect, I probably should have used my
college resources to the fullest, rather than relying on my father to be
everything for me in college. He was
good, but I think I could have received a more object view of my college career
from a non-parent. He did think getting
a Technical Writing minor was a good idea.
I am glad, too.
I am now teaching Technical Writing classes. I think I may be more excited about it than
the students may be sometimes. It is all
because I had the Technical Writing minor as part of my Bachelor’s degree.
