A few of my friends along with my husband have convinced me to write a book about my experiences in the education field. That's what I've been doing. I'm very excited about this new endeavor, and I can't wait to share my thoughts and experiences with the world. In the meantime, please continue to contact me for all your writing and editing needs. And remember, it's not what you say; it's how you say it.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/231355120280498595-2763625929842502056?l=wordsmithsandmore.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Wordsmiths and Morehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03249852136807590645noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-231355120280498595.post-81543958008516599902008-02-16T19:54:00.000-08:002008-02-16T20:03:21.947-08:00There are five major stages to the writing process: 1. Prewriting, 2. Drafting, 3. Revising, 4. Editing/Proofreading, and 5. Publishing/Presenting.<br /><br /><strong>Prewriting</strong> is the stage in which you explore your possible topics, choose a topic, and then gather details and information that you can include in your writing assignment.<br /><br /><strong>Drafting</strong> involves putting ideas down on paper in a rough format.<br /><br /><strong>Revising</strong> is the stage in which you rework your rough draft to improve both its form and its content.<br /><br /><strong>Editing/Proofreading</strong> are the stages in which you polish or correct your writing by eliminating errors in grammar, spelling, and mechanics.<br /><br /><strong>Publishing/Presenting</strong> are the sharing of your writing with others.<br /><br /><em>This information was taken from the textbook Writing and Grammar: Communication in Action.</em><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/231355120280498595-8154395800851659990?l=wordsmithsandmore.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Wordsmiths and Morehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03249852136807590645noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-231355120280498595.post-29102415790387474182008-01-31T08:44:00.000-08:002008-02-16T19:52:09.481-08:00Thanks for visiting the Wordsmiths and More blog!
