213-218 Responses and Revising

I really only like when teachers revise my papers. I feel like when students revise it, they don't get every problem. I always want to know exactly what is wrong and exactly how to fix it. Since I really don't care that much when I revise people's papers, I really dont think they care when they revise my papers. Deadlines are a big problem for me. Sometimes I just think I can do a paper in an hour, and papers need a lot more time than that. They take several steps to write. I like how on page 215, the author says to give yourself a break from writing. Like walk away from your paper for a little bit. That makes sense to me. That could be why my papers aren't always that good. I usually just write the whole paper all at one time and a lot of mistakes are made. I don't feel like I would ever completley rewrite a paper in another form. I dont think that is worth it. If your paper is supposed to be an arguement, why rewrite it as a story? That seems like wasting time that you could just be spending on revising the actual paper and make it what it is really supposed to be.
