Question

Which phase of a writing strategy involves deciding on the topic and the purpose of the essay?

Answer 1

Well, from my experience, it would be prewriting. Prewriting is where you come up and brainstorm ideas. Its when you scribble ideas and write out a plan on the direction that you want your paper to head to, where you would write a list or draw a picture on key points you want to hit on the paper.
