A Prize for Bad Writing

... I won one! :D

But it wasn't my bad writing, it was that of one of my students. At the department party, we could enter a line from student writing we thought was particularly bad and win a prize. The prize turned out to be a bunch of homemade fudge, so thanks bad student writer!

Here was the line:

"When I write, I just can't help but to spill a little bit of myself onto the page."

EW. Do you need a tissue when you write your essay? Hand sanitizer, please.
