In my paper revision most of the changes I made were clarifications and elaborations. In the introduction I more clearly stated the main points of my paper and gave a little more background on them. I feel that the reader now better understands what to expect in the paper and it gave me some more ethos as the writer. Also in the 6^th paragraph I had about four rhetorical questions all linked together, thus diminishing the strong stance I had. I took out most of the questions and replaced them with other strong statements that helped support what I had just asked. The questions left too much up to the audience, with this revision I was able to better persuade them to see my point.

This course has helped me grow a lot as a writer. At the beginning of the semester I was very unsure of myself and my writing, I really had no idea what I was doing. My English 1100 class was no help really, it was more of an extension of my high school English, but this class really opened my eyes to how I can actually do this and be good at it. This class has instilled a new confidence in me as a writer and  inspired me to do my best work. I’d even venture to say that project three was the best paper I have written in my life. I would also like to thank you for your tireless efforts in molding us to be better, without you none of this would be possible. I plan on recommending you to all of my friends.
