At last, I am involved in a class where being concise is valued. I have been told by teachers in the past that my writing is too succinct. Therefore, I’ve developed a sort of insecurity with writing where I always feel like I need to add to it. This pressure always becomes most apparent when I need to fulfill a length requirement. Most students have developed the skill of “bull-crapping” a paper. Well, I can’t bull-crap to save my life. Instead of dwelling on length, I try focus on quality (accomplishing my task), and if I’ve done that then I’m satisfied.
