There weren’t that many differences from my first draft and final draft. I am happy with my final draft. I think I did a great job and put a lot of effort to my final draft. I did made varies mistake in my first draft that I had to correct in my final draft. I also had to go in more details with my paper, make it more personal. In my final draft I ready found or showed my feelings towards writing. I had some grammar mistake, sentence fragments and run on sentences but not any major changes. Yes I do believe I am able to find my own mistake but not every one of them. I think it’s better to have someone keep peer reviewing my essay because they can help me find my mistakes and give opinions on how to make my paper better. I learned a lot from having my peer review my papers. I learned that my conclusion wasn’t very understandable. Now if I did have my peer review my paper and tell me that I would have kept my conclusion the way it is. I learn that others opinions are good and they can maybe catch stuff I didn’t catch. As I said I think peer review is better than checking it yourself because what sound good to you may not make sense to others. The strongest part of my essay is my introduction. I started with my feelings toward writing and in my past how I always struggled with writing. The weakest part of my essay was my conclusion and vocabulary. My peer said I needed to add a little more to my conclusion, a few more sentences to make it solid.

What makes A good paper?
what makes a good paper good is the time and effort you put toward your paper. Think and brainstorm on the topic instead of just writing from the top of your head. Revise and rewrite play a big part in making your paper good. Even editors and publishers have to rewrite some of their greatest papers like a hundred time before they are good.
As soon as you read a paper you can tell if it's a passing paper or not. When you read the paper just ask yourself a few question like what's the point of this paper? W ho is the paper about and who is expected to read it? Is it clear and interesting? Is the introduction and conclusion and is it opening and closing the main argument? What are their reason/example to support their main arguments? When you can find this in a paper than that's a good paper.

assignment #2
I have three great topics to pick from for my literacy narrative
assignment. With "Something I would change about myself" being my first choice. I pick this topic because it took me a while to right this paper the right way. I wrote this paper my first year of college and I wrote it over and over and over again because I wrote it any kind of way and about anything. I kept saying I do not want to change nothing about myself but my teacher had me really sit down a think deep and hard about.
My second choice was this paper I wrote last semester about domestic violence's. This topic always got me to thinking. I did a lot of research on the topic and found out a lot of information and things I didn't know. This paper was a little easy because I wrote papers about this topic before but so much change in society every year. This paper also made me a little upset to know that people will go so low as to hitting on beat on someone just to make themselves feel in-control.
My last choice was also in my senior year of high. The beginning of my senior year we all had to write a personal statement to send to colleges we plan to attend. this also was a paper I had to rewrite a few time before my teacher gave me the thumbs up. I though the paper was about telling the school I planed to attend why they should let me attend their school nothing less and nothing more. I had to really get personal.
