WS67: A Well Farewell

I knew it was only a matter of time before I would be required to write using a writing starter about writing starters. (WS-ception?)

         Anyways the writing starters this semester have varied  substantially form one another. Some, of course, were more useful than others. Still, there's no pin point advice I can give on how to improve them. The fact that each can vary so dramatically from one another is what makes them affective at helping people discover new ways to write creatively and practice the skills that need to be trained.
          I also find it incredibly difficult to generalize what writing starters were more "effective than the others. For an example, I am not very keen on writing dialogue, thus i found the writing starters revolving around dialogue more stressful. Then again, These also helped me to  become a better writer in these aspects. this too also seems to not be absolute either however, not all dialogue writing starters were stressful nor difficult. The recent writing starter The Devils Stewardess (which is still a  work in progress) was one of my most enjoyable to write.
            The Writing starters that I found the most enjoyable were the ones that allowed for a completely free story to be made, ones that vaguely describe a theme or setting. My favorite would be the one that prompted my story Arrival which ever one that was. I even turned it in as my sci-fi story. on the other end of the spectrum, the "love letter project was far too restricting, it was asking us to participate in a specific project, writing starters like this I would usually skip.
             All in all, the benefits of the writing starters far outweigh the negatives. The only real issue that they create is conflict with the assignments were had to work on. usually they would drain time, and distract from the story I would currently be working on, this was an issue. This however, is a small price to pay for the daily exercises that help influence our writing abilities. perhaps I would suggest that during certain periods of the semester, writing starts should become  assigned bi-daily.

Anyways, It's been fun, and I'm kinda sad to see no longer get to see what the "Next" starter will be, you should continue them for future years. create some new ones, and change there format (oh yea, and fix your website....that shit don't work bro) thanks for the enjoyable semester, and this shall be my blogs farwell for it.
