Today, in English class, the rough drafts of our memoir project were returned to us. Our professor had marked segments of the piece she believed required revision. I was dissappointed in myself when I discovered most of the mistakes on my paper were simple errors (i.e. improper placement of commas.) I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. After all, I did write the memoir 2 days before the deadline and didn't proof read it to the point I should have. On the bright side, these errors are easy to fix and that portion of the revision shouldn't take too long.
Another aspect which could potentially improve my paper is more in depth description. Fitting more detail into my piece, without completely altering the pace of the memoir, can prove to be a little challenging. Hopefully if I do it correctly I can significantly improve my piece.
By taking into account the professor's comments, as well as the feedback I received from my peers last week, I can turn my rough draft into something polished.
