Way of Writing


After reading and analyzing another writers work I now feel more comfortable in writing papers. What I mean by this, is that we were to crtique a writers work. Whether it would be finding grammatical errors, comma splices, run ons, and or just writing what we thought about the paper. Using these key things in analyzing someones paper helps me as a writer. I felt like I was a teacher grading a students essay. Using these key factors I can now reread and go back over my paper when I am done writing and see how many mistakes there are and go back and change them. Doing this will help me not only do a better job of writing an "A" paper but it will also help me in other areas. For example, after I fix my grammatical errors I will go back and reread the paper a day or two later to see if I can ask myself "why" at the end of a paragraph or ask myself "is this persuasive or not." If I answer these two questions in the paragraph(s) then I will know that there is nothing more I can do.
From the process of analyzing another work I have learned how to use the PEE structure more effectivly. If i state a point ill then explain the point. After that I will provide an example(s). All of these things that I used in analyzing another persons work will continue to help me throughout my years of college in writing papers. Because now i no what the reader of my paper will be looking for and i'll also know that the reader will be trying to connect with me both physically and emotionally on how my tone and point of view come across about the topic I am writing about.
