What I want to learn

What do you want to learn? Write why.

Where people usually get stuck on this one

When sentences run long

Cut at the conjunction. Where “and” or “so” appears, a period belongs.

When you can't be honest

When nothing comes to mind

Write down one thing that happened recently. It does not have to be a good story.
