Chapter 9 Revision

In chapter nine, the author emphasizes the importance of peer review and how it can improve your writing piece. I agree that peer review can help in finalizing a writing piece because there are times where I do not know what else I can add or revise in my writing. In my entire writing career, however, I have hated peer review because it is uncomfortable for me to let my fellow peer read my writing. When another student reads my work, I feel like they might not understand the point I am trying to make, and that may result in confusion for the reader. I also do not enjoy reviewing another person’s work because I don’t know what I should revise or critique. So, I understand that peer review is important to all writing, put peer review has not been my personal favorite in the writing process. I am only comfortable with my teacher or parents reviewing my work, but I am trying to have an open mind with allowing others to read and revise my writing.
