critique

Critique for me, I found it to be incredibly helpful. Not only was I receiving critique from my classmates and close friends, but I would have the chance to help others with their narratives and revising their own pieces. In the beginning, I really felt a little nervous about how my classmates were going to react towards my story, especially being something that, for me, affected me a lot, and others, it might not seem like a big deal. I was really hesitant with that, especially sharing such a difficult moment in my life. With this, I realized that everyone was sharing a small part of them that they weren't comftorable with in the beginning, but had to grow used to it as the process would continue, so knowing that I wasn't the only one feeling this really helped me a lot.

In the beginning, I knew my friends would help me a lot with critique because they would be able to know exactly what I wanted to work on and what I had gone through. Their critique was helpful in setting a base for my story. It was especially difficult in the beginning having to cut out chunks of just details, because I had really liked how it brought my story together, but didn't give it the same meaningfulness as others' stories. So, having my friends critique my first and second draft really helped.

As soon as we got into our performance groups and we had to do a critique, I realized that I was so happy we had done this. I had found another person who had a similar situation that I did and I was able to ask them questions about their narrative and how they incorporated research and emotions at the same time. I feel like my group really focused on helping me find a solid balance of emotions, research and scenery all in one. I thought I had everything I needed in my writing, but after these critiques, I realized everything I needed to work on, and what I needed to avoid when finishing my final narrative.
