Dear Dr.

Hartman, This assignment was hard to start out, but I went to Tucker and saw the rock wall. I climbed it and received ideas on what to write. I feel my self-evaluation for Process, Rhetorical Knowledge, Critical Thinking and Writing Growth and Knowledge of Conventions should be more in between exemplary and proficient. This is true because for Process, I wrote and edited my rough drafts I read them out loud to myself and got my old tutor to edit it. For Rhetorical Knowledge, I continued to stay on one topic, and used multiple descriptive words. Under Critical Thinking, I tried to be appealing to the audience by choosing a topic people tend to enjoy. Multiple times I use the senses by writing about different colors and smells and my arms hurting. In Knowledge of Conventions, The flow of the writing runs smooth, little to spelling and grammar errors. I had fun writing this paper once I figured out what to write on. Thank you, Jon Marc Wyatt
