Writers’ Fortnight was a great learning experience for me. I learnt about important writing tips, and how to go about forming a story. There were some very interesting stories and experiences that we learnt about throughout the 2 weeks of the activity. Some of them had a common element to them, for example, mental illness and health, which was the topic I chose for my article. I tried to use research and data, coupled with my own opinion interjected in many places to improve my article. I used anecdotes from my own life to make the article more personal and captivating. The concept of constructing your own story has left the biggest impression on my mind, and I think I have learnt some useful tips to be able to accomplish that.
