The biggest thing that I’ve taken away from this workshop is that I’m being super vague in my open letter. The examples that I bring up don’t really hit my audience the way that I want them to. I think that I need to readdress my letter, or maybe just scrap it and start all over. I don’t feel the passion that I want to be feeling about this letter. Sometimes in my writing, I think that it’s all for nothing. I know that it isn’t but again it’s just not hitting the way that I want it to be.
In some ways, I think I’m still kind of uncomfortable with oversharing. I sometimes struggle to see that line, so I just avoid it all together. Maybe I need to be more personal.
