Reflection

Writing Process
          I basically created my outline, and then followed it, with a few changes. The most difficult thing for me, honestly, was fitting in quotes and sources seamlessly. The most useful thing to me while writing this paper was the comments on our first draft, and the least useful thing was comments on our outline. Next time, I might try and keep all of the components of my paper together so that i wouldnt have to find them later. I think, to better prepare students, you could be more specific in what you want this paper to turn out to be.
         I received feedback from Dr. D, which was very useful to me, and feedback from peers on my draft, which i didnt have time to use.
          The strongest point in my paper is definitely my intro. It Is well written, grammatically flawless (unless i missed something), and grabs the reader. The weakest point in my paper is the conclusion, simply because it isnt as well developed as other parts of the paper.
          When you are reading my paper, note tat i expressed my opinion on the matter at the very end. I did this in order to try and keep the reader interested.
