This paper reports the results of qualitative and quantitative analyses of an essay project in which 40 EFL learners each wrote a 600word-long essay using a computer. Through 6 rounds of revisions, the essays were gradually polished into their final forms and published in a booklet format. Analyses of the (1) total number of words, (2) mean sentence length, (3) mean T-unit length, (4) Flesch Reading Ease, and (5) Flesch-Kincade Grade Level of drafts 1-7 showed that the quality of the drafts significantly improved in the course of rewriting based on direct/indirect suggestions by instructors. Errors observed in the drafts were tallied, classified, and scrutinized, revealing some of the learners' interlanguage rules and L1 transfer.
