Blog Post VII

Chapter nine of the BBG gave insightful information about peer reviewing and revising your work. I typically am reluctant to share my drafts with my peers because I am lowkey afraid of judgement because I, in fact write several very, very, rough drafts. It was particularly hard for me to share my Project One, polished draft with my review group, because I was reading aloud my personal story about my eating disorder with three people who were complete strangers to me. Although, their feedback was very helpful. I was worried that my text was not clear enough and they picked out parts of my paper where I had grammatical errors. I look forward to collaborating with them more this summer and getting closer so I no longer feel uncomfortable sharing my paper. I do wish we could collectively meet at Strozier one day and go in-depth with each other’s papers and revising it using the comment section of Microsoft.
