Asked by Colla
Can someone help me to paraphrase this sentence.
Title of the article is "Becoming a Writer" by Russell Baker
Sentence:
"I hated the assignments to turn out "compositions," and went at them like heavy labor, luckluster paragraphs that were agonies for teachers to read and for me to write."
I would appreciate any help

I would rather write creatively than by a standardized formula.
This would be what I would call the "gist" of that sentence. However, the original sentence is much more graphic and interesting.
