Peer Editing Process (2 of 4)

When I wrote my informational text for the class I knew that it wasn't my best written work. When I was looking for someone to read over my essay I got people who were in my genre to read my paper. I was extremely happy to see that they were highlighting and writing notations all over my essay. Some people might think that it was a bad thing but that was not the case with me. I knew that my paper was a piece of **** and I should have spent more time on it but the day I was working on it I was called by work and asked to work a shift. Being the poor college stundent that I am took the shift. I know that this sounds bad but after the mark-up copy of my essay came back I more than made up for what I had missed. My paper was changed, altered, and polished. When it came to the narrative I spent more time on the paper. As a result when it came to peer editing I had less red pen and highlighted portions. With their feedback I can see how I have progressed and what I need to focus on. I did this with the first paper and as a result my second was better.
