Third Year Honourable Mention: To: You, From: Me

WRIT 3730, Substantive Editing. CD: Dunja Baus

Abstract

“To: You, From: Me” is an example of reflective writing turned deeply inward, embracing self-awareness and the journey of discovery in a creative and engaging piece. Wielding perspective shifts, metaphor, and nuance, the author explores how emotion can both propel and stall a writer, simultaneously revealing the rawness that lies at the core of our creation, improvisation, and communication. Engaging, human, and relatable, the piece presents a message familiar to fellow writers and creatives, communicating the complexity of a writer’s relationship with writing. “To: You, From: Me” is an excellently written and evocative submission, well-deserving of Honourable Mention.
