The Writing Process Prewriting-brainstorm, choose topic,

identify purpose, audience, and form, gather ideas (drawing, clusters, talking, reading, role-playing)

Drafting-get ideas on paper-don’t worry about neatness, spelling, punctuation, skip lines on paper, mark out, make notes, or use computer

The Writing Process (con’t) Revising-proofread, have a friend proofread,

talk to someone about how to improve your piece. Does it flow? Does it make sense?

Editing-make necessary changes based on revisions, proofread, have a friend proofread, correct errors (spelling, grammar, etc.) put into final form, prepare to publish

Publishing-make books, share, author’s chair, display, parties, submit for publication, etc.
