MORE ABOUT THIS SERIES
A process implies that you must take a series of actions, work systematically, to achieve your goal. It could be a simple paragraph, story, blog post, email, or college essay. Many ESL and non-ESL students may know about the writing process, but they don't use it. They go straight to the writing stage. Increase your chance of writing effectively; follow the writing process, Without the writing process, you may need to rewrite portions of your work, get off-topic, have to start over, or lack coherence. The series of simple steps in the writing process guide you from the time you do not have a clear idea for writing, or your idea is too broad or too narrow, all the way to the end when you polish your work and have a good layout. "Think Stage:" when you define your idea for writing. You make sure your ideas are manageable; otherwise, you can work on them until you have the right idea to write about. "Write Stage:" you actually write your introduction, body, and conclusion paragraphs; they are coherent and well organized. In the conclusion, or the concluding paragraph, you put all your ideas together and present your final considerations. (However, you should not introduce new ideas at this stage.) "Polish Stage:" the final two steps you take. You are happy with your ideas, but you ensure they are presented the best way. You make sure that the mechanics of writing are in place: you check your spelling, grammar and punctuation, and style. First, you revise your work; you focus on the ideas only. There are techniques to check your sentences and paragraphs for clarity. Then you edit your work so there are no spelling mistakes, grammar and punctuation problems, and style issues that could detract from the content. Relying on a grammar checker or a spell checker can be a big mistake. Grammar and spell checkers are useful tools, but they do not always catch all problems, and sometimes they see a problem where there is none. Ultimately, you need to decide what is correct and incorrect, or appropriate and inappropriate in your writing. This writing series gives you tips on formatting, citing sources to avoid plagiarism, and finalizing your work. Without the writing process, writing can be difficult and frustrating.
