Page 4 Opinions – Writing columns is difficult

I write straight information with no bias.

That’s why writing opinions is so hard for me.

So here I am writing this opinion, trying to improve. 

In opinions you get to add that attitude – and your opinion obviously.

My biggest conflict with writing opinions is actually adding my opinion.

I don’t even have an opinion on having an opinion.

I have opinions but I can always see the other person’s side.

I’ve been taught to never have the writer’s opinion in your writing.

Another thing that is so hard is finding your opinion topic. 

I know I feel strongly about topics, but I start worrying about whether my friends won’t agree with me and will get upset with me.

I know I shouldn’t care about that, but it’s easier said than done.

There’s some kind of comfort in writing information-based stories.

I mean, most of my English essays have been informative.

I’m glad I have an outlet to practice my opinion writing and a team of people to help guide me through my writing.
