I recently finished writing a essay for my English class with the topic being to write a autobiographical piece on a certain prompt of my choosing. The prompt which I picked to write about was to explain how I found a certain writing or reading task that I done in the past was challenging. What I wrote for the prompt was basically my experiences with a project that I am currently working on called “In-Between Colors,” which is basically a story revolving around the theme of morality. In this essay, I shared my experiences of struggling with creating characters who would be appropriate for the story and how I learned to improve my writing skills from this project. When the time came to bring it in for the class, I had to do a peer review with a randomly assigned partner.
That peer review was useful for two reasons, the first one being that my partner gave me their input on what I wrote for the essay. Their input was simply corrections on spelling mistakes and asking some questions about certain details which I lacked in the writing. Then there is the second reason which was that I was able to see what my partner wrote and give them my input. The second reason allowed me to gain some insight into what another student in my class thinks about when it came to writing. This whole experience gave me some time to think about my development in terms of writing.
