My goal for this paper was to allow my readers to understand the true meaning of "good writing". That everyone is entitled to their own opinion on what that really means. We are all born with the ability to come up with our own opinions, and therefore we use those thoughts in order to back up what we believe is "good" or "bad". I referred to discourse communities as my main source because in each community there are specific rules and preferences as to what "good writing" is. It is hard for people in a discourse community to come up with their identity and to explore amongst their taste in different types of writing. I used my imagination in some parts of this paper, because I think I was able to tie myself into my paper more that way. I'm not worried about people disagreeing with this paper, because I believe it can be thought out in many different ways. It is for the public-eye and I hope my readers will get different things out of it than I thought was possible. I think if I had more time, I would've interviewed a handful of my classmates in order to get more of a feedback on what they really think about "good writing". My peer revision showed me that the basic point I was trying to get across was being understood. I also was able to see things that I missed out or that I included that I shouldn't have. I didn't agree with some of the comments that my sentences were confusing because I feel as if my paper flows very well.
