"Writing can be such a solitary activity when you don't have any kind of writing community that you are part of it. Having tutors and other students whose writing I admire and opinions I respect has been incredibly helpful. The measured, considered feedback that I've received in classes has not only helped me to hone my writing, but it's also lifted me at times when I was sick of looking at my own work. Whenever I've questioned myself and thought "What am I doing? I can't write. This is awful", there's always been someone to disagree with me - not just to say I was doing good work, but to push me a bit to improve."
