My Writing Process Analysis

Decent Essays
When entering college and finishing my first essay, I realized my process wasn’t good enough in order to write a good essay. When doing my first narrative and comparing my narrative to the article “Thirty-eight who saw murder,” my process was reading thoroughly over the article and writing a reading report of the reading which it was included in the beginning of my introduction as seen in the image below. Afterwards, I just started finishing my introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion. In addition, when finishing my first draft I revised it as well as from my instructor as shown in the black marks below. From the individual conference with my instructor, it is shown in the image that I needed to fix almost my whole introduction.

    The Process of Effective Writing Green (2011) states that APA and good writing is a long term process (p.69). The writing process has always been difficult for me. My writing has improved with the help of my instructors, online resources, and the college writing center. In order to write effectively at the graduate level, I will need to refer to the various writing resources that are made available.

    In addition, Mr. Smith assigned a Reading Process Project, which consisted of six page sets with four assignments each: TIEDIED paragraphs which centered around certain aspects of the story (particularly the theme); journal entries about a list of topics Mr. Smith assigned (the novel was written in diary form); different types of poems, such as free verse, ballads, senryus, and African praise poems; and drawings related to the story. The drawings seemed irrelevant to me; after all, I thought, this was world literature class and not visual art class. Afterwards, I began outlining my essay and composing my first draft during a timed writing session; all the while, I made countless revisions using a dictionary and thesaurus so I would not use the same word or phrase many times. After typing my first draft, I checked for grammar mistakes and improvements on GrammarBase.com and GrammarCheck.net,…

    In regards to my writing process, there have been some central strategies that I have developed over time and some strategies that I have had for as long as I can remember. For example, one skill that I have developed from high school has been to annotate, mark up, and take notes throughout my readings. I found that taking notes really helps me, not only to remember what I read but to go back and be able to point out something in my reading easily. In addition, it helped me understand the readings better.…

    I think that paraphrasing will be the hardest for me to avoid while writing. It seems that sometimes it is hard to write or summarize something that is so well written already. The way I will work around that is to stop and re-read what I am wanting to summarize, take a few important words out of the material I am reviewing and jot those down, then go back and write what is needed to complete my sentence or idea. Once I have completed my writing, I will review and make sure I have properly cited my work. Using the guidelines discussed in our “Read Section”, and following the instructions listed on how to source correctly should avoid paraphrasing mistakes and plagiarism.…
