My name is Jonathan Moore, but many simply call me Jon. As I compose this blog I am still undecided as to what my major will be; either Criminal Justice or Medical Assisting. Living in Port Townsend I have had experiences with both professions having contracted with the local city and county prosecuting attorney’s to manage a diversion office for first time felony and misdemeanor offenders, and then through medical treatments I received while I was undergoing chemotherapy to treat my cancer.
During my time at diversion I wrote many correspondence to the prosecutors reporting on the offender’s activities and progress. The correspondence were written to be clear, descriptive and non-biased. I believe this to be my strength. After reading the assigned material I realized there is so much more to reading and writing. I quickly realized “I’m not as thunk as I smart I was.” I am so excited to have the opportunity to learn more about the nuances of reading and writing in a more critical way. Though my experience in some ways prohibited me from critically reading some reports I would receive (chemical dependency and domestic violence treatment evaluations) I look forward to applying the techniques I will learn to my hobby in religious studies. I have always viewed writing as a very important part of communication. I look forward to fine tuning what I already know and learning ways to improve my use of this form of communication.
