Editing

So today I had another friend look over my paper. I always get super nervous when I let people read my papers, I feel like they are going to judge me and say that I am a terrible writer. He did not say that it was bad but he did tell me that I could word things differently to make them sound smarter and use synonyms instead of the same words over and over. I am thankful that I have friends like him that are willing to read over my crappy writing and help me make it better, but I do still get nervous about it!

  1. I am about to have my friend read my paper and I feel the same way! I am really not that great a writer so I always get so scared and tell them a million times "this is so bad! please don't judge me!" I know she will be nice though and honest about what I need to work on. I just can't wait to turn this paper in..
