1. This text initially surprised me in the way that it was written and the tone of the authors voice made it an enjoyable read. I was also surprised at how helpful it was in forming responses to the writer as it is difficult to give someone criticism without coming off rude.
2. I definitely think the strategies in this text can help me in this peer review. Taking in to consideration how much you should be influenced by what you know about the reader really stood out to me because I myself have a fear of doing peer reviews because I low key get offended really easily and will stay up all night thinking about how Becky thought I needed to add more detail. I find it interesting that the author encourages us to form our criticism based on the actual person who wrote it. I was also intrigued about Straub's methods to respond to the reader. Making them more lengthy is important because the writer will not be satisfied with vague comments that wont achieve your goal of trying to help their writing.
3. I have done a few peer reviews in the past however they were not very helpful. No one really took them seriously and left vague and useless comments rather than truly analyzing my work.

I also agree that having longer responses helps improve ones writting. This is because it gives them a ton of feedback and more ideas on how to improve their paper.
