Really Responding

-This text did not really surprise me, in a way it just clarified and refined what it is to respond on a writing and what to do with responses on your writing. I always try my best to be polite and say only the good things about someones writing, and although this is nice this text clarified that its more beneficial to the writer if you praise as much as you criticize. Both are equally important to the writer.
- Yes I think this text is perfectly geared towards our peer review. It covers that we should be specific, not short and sweet. Really explain to the writer your thoughts when reading what they wrote. Also another point it covers is to ask questions as the reader, because if we ask questions to the writer it will help them to address it in their writing.
-Yes I have done peer review before, it was not a terrible experience. I never thought it was beneficial to me as the writer, because I never got much feedback. I also did not in the past particularly like peer review because I was worried the reader would not get what I was trying to write about.
