Response to “The Maker’s Eye”

My revision process has been looking over my piece, like the Murray article that writes, by looking for major errors with the paper and then going in deeper to look at what other people said about my work. When Murray writes, “When students complete a first draft, they consider the job of writing done” (Paragraph 1). I very much went by this logic in my first and second WP papers because I really did believe that this was all I had to do.  I would usually revise the bigger pieces of my argument so that it would flow better. In this class I specifically revised what people said I needed work on but in my last paper I revised much more than that revising what I also thought needed to be worked on. One of the ways Murray puts good revisions as, “the writer must learn to read critically but constructively, to cut what is bad, to reveal what is good” (Paragraph 8). I believe during my WP 3 I did this the best because I really considered what was good about it and took my time to revise it and look over it.
