I am afraid to write sometimes because if I have to write about something that is out of my comfort zone or about something that I don't have that much information on, I am afraid that I will not be able to back up my points. I am also afraid that I will be writing wrong information just to write any information down. I also get afraid to write sometimes when I have to write really long papers and my grade is at the disposal of a teacher or professor. I am even more afraid when I have a new teacher who I don't know and I am unsure of how he or she grades or what they are looking for in their papers.
I do not take writing as seriously as Jacques Derida because I am not a professional writer. I take writing seriously when I am writing something important for school. I like to know all of my material and have it studied so I can make the clear points and understand what I am writing about, but I do not feel like writing is necessary as I am doing it. I think writing should be like that for authors and essayists because that is what they do for a living, and that is what they love to do, but for other people, especially students, it is not usually taken that seriously.
