In my opinion, you were a major contributor. I did not hear any personal attacks, which is good. What stood out to me most was when you commented about Antonia’s paper. You said that she should not concede to Elbow at the end I think. I thought that was a very constructive comment. It provided a different angle than what everyone else was saying, but was a valid point to make.
My overall impression was that you engaged the group well. I felt you were a little slow to get in the discussion at the beginning, but at the end you came on strong with well thought out comments. Though I did not write it down, I remember having the impression that you were specific with your comments.

You really have interesting things to say regarding the papers, and I think your input is really constructive and full of substance. Every comment that I can remember, you use a specific quote from the paper. Very well done in that regard.
One thing I noticed this past workshop was that you started out really strong for Claire’s paper. You offered your conventional wisdom of suggesting the writer to explain how procrastination effects them. I thought your comments for her were very specific. I thought your comments for Margaret and Kelsey were very thoughtful and specific as well. The only thing I noticed in a negative regard is that you did not comment for Jennifer, unless I did not write it down. But overall, I think you greatly contributed to the discussion.
