The peer review process was very interesting for me. One of the essays I was assigned I felt was nearly ready for submission. The other essay, though, needed a lot of work before the final draft. It was difficult for me to critique someone else’s writing fairly harshly because it was obvious some level of effort was put into it. I wanted to stay very constructive and kind, but there was also a lot of changes to be made. I think I can apply what I’ve seen in other’s writing to my own by looking at what I critiqued in other’s work and making sure I don’t do the same things.
