My Writing Process

My writing process is usually very informal. I take my topic and try to divide it into at least three different subjects with in the main topic. Then I take the length the paper is suppose to be and try to figure out how long each of those sub topics need to be. All of this is usually just in my head; I have yet to write anything down at this stage.

If the assignment is a research paper I would then begin to look for information. I might do this sooner if I have no knowledge of the topic, so I know how I want to divide it. After that my writing process is pretty flimsy, I just go from there, writing from topic to topic. After the paper is done, I’ll go back look for any mistakes, items I would like to change, like move sentences or paragraphs. On average that is how I write all my papers.
