blog week 12A

Before publishing anything and making it official, it is important to make a rough draft of what you're about to publish. Meaning that after brainstorming ideas, reasearching whatever is needed, and thinking of your opinion is towards what you're writing about, you can begin to piece all of it together. After piecing it together and forming what you think is a good essay, it is important to get another pair of eyes on it which is known as peer review. Peer review helps to get an outsiders view on what you're writing about, this way you know if you have all of the information that is needed to make your writing clear to the audience. However, whether it is you who is doing the peer review or you're getting your paper peer reviewed, it is important to not be too harsh. Let them know where they messed up, how you think they can improve it, and what you believe they've done right. Don't take things to the heart, a peer review is used to HELP you and your writing, not harm in any way, shape, or form.
