Introductions

This is a good example of properly using "choose"
and "chose," two very commonly misspelled words.
I also really like cats.

Introduce yourself here! It's probably the easiest assignment of the semester.

You can share anything you'd like, but be sure to include your name and SOMETHING related to writing, reading, or learning from your past or present. You can add other information, too, like a fun fact or something interesting about yourself. Put your introduction in the comments section. This is mainly so I can a. get to know you and b. make sure everyone has access to the blog. \

I'll be brave and go first:

My name's Katie, but you can call me Professor Hoerth, which, by the way, is pronounced like Earth but with an H in front. It's super easy! But don't worry, you can mispronounce my name all you'd like. I've always loved to write -- I remember when I was in high school, my favorite subject was English, though I was actually not very "good" at it. I had trouble following writing rules, and I'm a really, really terrible speller (I'm sure you'll notice it up on the board throughout the semester). But even so, I always thought of myself as a "good" writer because even though sometimes my writing was (is) messy, I use it as a way to explore my thoughts and ideas. My favorite type of writing is poetry, but no worries, you won't be having to write poetry for this class.

Aside from poetry, my other hobbies include blogging (yay!), baking, and running. Oh and here's a fun fact: I'm a vegetarian.

Please have your posts up before Wednesday, August 28th.
