I noticed that the professional liked to write very long sentences. He rarely used short sentences. When he, it was to get his point across. I also noticed that his tone was very informative and not very personable. Mine, on the other hand, was more personal and didn't seem like a robot was writing. But over all i think that his outline and progress was more fluid than mine was. I sometimes get off topic but it is my rough draft. Finally I think that I use a lot more words to get my point across.

Yes, I noticed that the professional wrote very long sentences as well. My editorial also was way over the amount of words the professional used.
