The Writing Process

My steps for the writing process are usually straight forward. I try to think of a topic that I like, that also pertains to the prompt that I am given. As I am deciding on a topic, I look up a little information about the topic to make sure I will like it and that I will have enough information to write about. Then, I like to make a rough outline of how I think it will flow nicely. Once I have the rough outline, I make a more in depth outline summarizing my main ideas with the research that I have done. I finally start writing my rough draft and every time I come back to it I always reread and edit while I write it. After many times of writing it I print it out and read it over and write over things that I do not like then add, subtract, and change as much as I feel is needed, sometimes it's a little too much editing. When I think that I am getting close to be finishing I make someone proofread it and make any additional changes that need to be made.
