Reflection on my first paper

My opinion of my paper on a personal experience: Learning to read is that it was a generally good story. I liked the approach i took when going about telling the story, which was a different route than others took when opening their papers. I started off by placing the reader in my mind set, describing to them what i was experiencing so they could vizualize it in their head. Although, in some areas the word choice could have been improved to make the story flow a little more than it did at times. My idea for this paper generated from reading through some topics and thinking about which one would suit me best. I started the paper off by brainstorming and jotting down ideas. I then took my ideas and created sentences which included my complete thoughts. When my draft was complete i had two peers review the paper. The feedback I recieved was positive for the most part, with some minor recommended changes in some areas. If i had to redo this paper i would not change anything about my final draft; if anything i may have choose to do a new topic.
