It was interesting peer editing in class today.. the essay I edited was a literary analysis paper... which was a bummer cuz then I couldn't get more ideas on ways to improve my paper.. but that person's paper was still good :) Peer editing was helpful today... now we get tomorrow to fix it and get it ready for Thursday :)

It was interesting correcting a paper that was a different topic then my own but it was well written and had a lot of support. It gave me an idea on how to improve my paper.

More editing, went well. I got a lot of good feedback. The comments from everyone seem to be improved since the start of the quarter.
