Answer: Understanding the Writing Process
Sometimes writing can seem overwhelming. How do you move from an idea to a finished essay? And how do you know when your essay is complete? It helps to think about writing as a series of steps. Then you can focus on one step at a time. When you've gone through all the steps, you'll have a solid piece of writing.
All together, the steps make up the writing process. The writing process helps you tackle a writing assignment in a particular order. But the process is flexible too. You can return to earlier steps anytime you need to.
The writing process can be broken down into seven steps:
brainstorming
outlining
drafting
reviewing
revising
proofreading
publishing
As you write, you'll do the steps in this order. But you can also return to earlier steps to rethink your writing. In this lesson, you'll go through the brainstorming, outlining, and drafting stages. Later, you'll finish the rest of the writing process in the activity for this unit. The unit activity will guide you through the reviewing, revising, and proofreading steps.
Types of Essays
You can use the writing process to write any type of essay. But you'll need to adjust the steps of the process to work best for each type of essay. In this lesson, we'll focus on writing a persuasive essay. The term persuade means "to convince." So, a persuasive essay is one that tries to convince readers of something. Let's take a look at this type of essay in contrast with some others.
