Writing is a process of
organizing and expressing your thoughts. Since writing is a
process, there is no one or single manner of writing an essay.
However, "experienced writers pass through certain stages
that overlap and circle back on each other" (Little,
Brown Handbook). These stages include: 1) Developing
or Planning (discovering the subject, gathering information,
focusing on a central theme, and organizing material); 2) Drafting
(the "writing" that includes creating ideas, expressing
ideas, clarifying ideas, and connecting ideas); 3) Revising
(rethinking and improving structure, content, style, and
presentation; re-writing; editing; and proofreading).
