to expand on it. Don’t make the
mistake of jumping straight into
your writing – you’ll end up with a
badly structured piece.
A.) Free writing - Open a new document
or start a new page, and write
everything that comes into your head
about your chosen topic. Don’t stop to
edit, even if you make mistakes.
B.) Brain storming - Write the idea or
topic in the center of your page. Jot
down ideas that arise from it – sub-
topics or directions you could take with
the article.

6. decide which ideas you’ll use. During
your free writing and brainstorming,
you’ll have come up with lots of
thoughts. Some belong in this piece of
writing

(Make it Better)
Revising your work is about making “big
picture” changes. You might remove whole
sections, rewrite entire paragraphs, and
add in information which you’ve realized the
reader will need. Everyone needs to revise

10. look for ideas which you didn’t use.
Rearrange words or sentences.

14. Step 5: Publishing
