writing process

When i start to writing, i basically just get on the computer and start typing whatever that comes to mind. I spend a lot of time on the introduction because i think that is the most important part of a paper. a good introduction will keep the reader interested and also the whole paper will build upon the intro. After i write the intro and state the thesis, then i start on the body of the paper. In the body, i put down all the ideas to support my thesis. Finally, in the conclusion, i basically restate everything to make sure the reader understands the purpose of the paper. I don't go back and edit my paper for errors.
After reading writing workshop book, i found that there are lots of steps in the writing process. You have to plan, draft, evaluate, and edit. in order to write a good paper, there are many things that has to be done before actually writing the paper. First, you need to brainstorm and generate ideas. then you have to develop a good intro. you also have to consider the length of the paper and the amoutn of information to include. Also, main ideas and supporting details should be clearly stated. Finally, you have to revise the paper to make sure the purpose is clearly stated and address the right audience.
