OpEd Reflection

Over all I really enjoyed writing the OpEd. I liked that we could pick our on topic. That really helped me to be interested in what I was writing. I felt like the writing process that I used for this paper was the best that I've used so far and that this is also the best paper I've written in a while. I loved that it wasn't very formal. I was able to really put my personality into it and create my own voice.
The conference really helped me in my writing. Chris was able to see things that I never picked up on and if I hadn't had a conference I think my writing would have struggled because of that. However, the writing center did not help me. The tutor that was working with me was really rude. I could tell that she didn't agree with me and I felt that that created a bias. She was more picking on my opinion than my writing. She did have a few good points but it wasn't a good experience.
I think that my writing was greatly improved by working on this OpEd and I hope that what I have learned can carry with me into my other papers.
