It's Never Too Late
To ever try to publish a blog post. And that's one of the things that I have noticed about my writing style, that it's always the last moment, and I try to find ways to putting it off. I believe I already made a comment about this fact to a fellow classmate. I don't think I've gotten better since then, even with the threats of a failing blog grade...boo... I know my writing style continues to be weak, often times with my inability to form connections between my premises to form an overall argument. Often times I will have no problem finding examples and analyzing content/context but fail at creating a strong argument for an audience. This is especially problematic due to EVERY academia paper must be formed in this way. At least all the ones I encounter. Wow, I think I'm just going to talk down on my writing style the whole time. I also noticed that if I don't pay attention to my writing, I'll often repeatmy sentences with the same introductory or starting words.

I have the same problem as you, I always put off my writing until the last minute and never have enough time to go over my papers after they are written. I'm glad that this class requires us to hand in a first draft, revised draft and a final version of our papers because this will force me to go through each of these steps and revise my papers enough.
I've found the most successful and stress free papers I've written were started early, or rather on time. The earlier I get something tangible down on paper the easier it is to organize and fill holes in my argument. Also writing a paper that you're not proud of isn't much fun.
