Magazine Reflection
Something that went well for me during magazine project was that I was able to use my time efficiently and it definitely made for a better quality product. Since I used all the extra time I had to critique my own paper and also get critiques from others it made my writing more informative and straight to the point. By the time we had to turn it in I had a final product that I was proud to show off.
2. What challenges did you face as you moved from an early draft or idea to a final product?
The challenges I faced for this project I did not face recently but rather when I first started writing the blog that I then turned into an essay to turn in. When I first wrote my economic advice in the blog form I struggled quite a bit because I had to do a large amount of research and structure my blog in such a way that flowed. I did the best I could for the blog with the amount of time I was given.

When hearing about the magazine project I knew I wanted to contribute a piece of writing that differed from everyone else's so I used the economic advice blog. I didn't struggle quite so much this time around when revising and editing it. The most work I had to do was cutting out the excess words I did not need and structuring it so that it would flow exactly how I wanted it to.
3. What other examples of work—student and professional—stood out as exemplary and served as a good model for your own work?
While working on my article before going to internship one day I came across a draft of Wyatt's work. I read his article and I found it to be well written and filled with his wit. It made me want to keep reading and held my attention the entire time. I thought it served as a good model for myself because my main goal in my writing is to keep the readers attention from start to finish so that they read my entire piece. Wyatt demonstrates this very well in his writing and modeled what I hope I did with my final product.
