Usually we hang out at Jerome’s or Dylan’s house. Jerome’s parents work long hours. So at Jerome’s house it’s just us guys hangi

ng out in his den and playing video games. Jerome calls the den “his castle,” and I believe him, too, because when we’re at his house, we’re left alone to play video games, watch TV, and eat pizza out of the box without any interference from his family.
At my house . . . well, let’s just say that life at my house is a lot livelier. Some might describe it as hectic or chaotic. My mother likes to call it spirited; my father says it is boisterous. My abuela (grandmother) who lives with us says our house is like a little bit of Puerto Rico in the middle of Illinois.

**JOURNALISM QUESTIONS** pls help me!
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

hey! thanks for the question.

from planning to drafting, i'd suggest doing research and knowing what you're going to talk about. organize it properly, maybe by cause and effect, or a timeline, ect. make sure the order makes sense and flows correctly.

revising is usually more like fixing the rough draft, and organizing it so it goes smoothly. editting is the final draft, in which you make it sound better.

taking a break is important because you need to get evidence, and read examples, which you can do while resting your fingers from writing.

make sure to rephrase this when answering :)
