dc.description.abstractThis qualitative study explores the experiences of a self-proclaimed non-writer as she seeks to understand and develop a style of writing. Research is included to support the ideas that teachers of writing should be writers themselves, writer's, often times, learn from each other, and young adult literature is, indeed, relevant to our society. By using the autobiographical method, the author investigates the significant events of her educational journey and describes the transformation that occurred while writing a young adult novel. The author discovers workable techniques and strategies by monitoring the planning, drafting, and revising stages of the traditional writing process. By telling her story, the author was able to construct meaning for herself, and in turn, provide the information necessary for others to be success during the writing process.
