Sanstrom – Paper 1 – Final Draft

Reflecting on Revision – Paper 2

For this page I have chosen to primarily focus on my second essay in English 110, my significant writing project, I believe it was my strongest revision. I believe it was my strongest revision due to the fact that I didn’t completely rewrite my essay like I did with the first one. I was confused on the expectations for the first draft of the first essay, therefore once we touched base in class I decided to scratch my first attempt. Yet, I improved for my second essay, I had a better understanding of the expectations going in and was able to get the majority of the paper there. Of course I reread and altered sentences and phrasing but I rewrote my final paragraph with stronger evidence and practically rewrote my conclusion. Another primary revision component in my second essay is complexity due to my professor stating how it needed to be strengthened in my first essay. With that said I added a branching out paragraph after my first one to add another facet. I made sure to be much more specific in my theme and carry it throughout along with attempting to add several components in one idea.
