2.1 Refletcion

When writing the rogerian argument I had to do a lot more thinking. It took me longer to get out all of my thoughts on the issue and I really had to think about my motives behind each point I was making because I didn't want to sound too objective or stuck to one side. It was a lot different from writing a rebuttal becuase in the last paper I could take one side and get all of the facts I needed to boost my personal argument. I feel like on the last paper I was really geared towards being "better" then the other side so I was able to focus all of my agression into that. However, with this paper I had to take my time and cut out some of my points to make room for the other side of the argument. So overall i think this paper was a but harder just because I wasn't able to just rant about my point of view. Instead I had to make time for the other side.
I think in my next draft I am going to finish my works cited and also have either one of my friends look over it or go to the writing lab and see what I really need to work on. I think for the last paper the writing lab really helped a lot so I'll be going back there again. I think mostly I will be looking at my main points and making sure they're clear to my audience. This is always something I can improve on because when something is clear to me it's not always clear to my audience.
