The Writing Process
The writing process means steps that one follows while writing or before publishing a
written work. It involves different steps:
1) Prewriting: It is the planning stage. It is
anything you do before you write a draft of your document. It includes
thinking, taking notes, talking to others, taking suggestions, outlining and
gathering information (e.g., interviewing people, researching in the library,
assessing data).
2) Drafting: Here you put your ideas into
sentences and paragraphs and begin to connect your ideas. You give a rough
shape to your writing. It is handwritten copies of your writing.
3) Revising: Here you revise the writing
work and rearrange ideas or sentences to make connections between ideas clear.
Here you also think more deeply about your readers’ needs and
expectations. For this, you edit necessary ideas too.
4) Editing: Here you check for
grammar(capitalization and punctuation) and spelling errors. Be sure all
sentences are complete. Change words that are not used correctly or are
unclear. Make sure you are using the appropriate style formatting. Have
someone else check your work.
5) Publishing: Publishing is the last stage
where writers submit their work to the publisher. Here you make sure your
written document should be completed before giving it to the publisher.
