Writing workshop #1

I found my first writing conference to be very productive. My partner and I both started off on the same page approaching this assignment, and therefore it really helped to sit down and talk about where exactly we wanted to go with our paper and how we planned on getting there. Surprisingly, I didn't find looking over each others papers to be all that helpful. I found that discussing the general topic, the format of the paper, and what we wanted to portray through our work to be a lot more productive. Once I understand exactly what the prompt wants me to show and the structure I am expected to write in, I have a much easier time getting to where I want to go. I expect to be a lot more confident in my next draft, especially now that I know what is expected of me. I feel I can dive into my ideas more now that I know where I want to go with it.
