Your Writing Process

Title this  "My Writing Process."

     Write about  your own personal writing process.  Consider the questions below, and/or add comments of your own.  You do not have to answer all of the questions below.  Use them as thinking-starters.
Thinking-Starter Questions: 
Prewriting -- Do you use prewriting? What kinds of prewriting do you use?    
Drafting -- How and where do you like to draft?  Where do you write?  Do you like to use a certain type of pen or pencil or paper?
Quirkiness -- Do you have any writing quirks? (Examples of quirks: One writer says he does his best writing in a warm bath.  Another has to have a large bag of M ‘n M’s by her side as she writes.
Revising -- What kinds of revision do you use the most? How many drafts do you usually go through to produce a quality piece of writing?  Do you ask other people to read a draft and make suggestions for revision?
Editing -- How comfortable are you with editing?  Do you get help editing your papers?
Publishing -- What types of publishing have you done? (in class? on the Internet? in a newspaper? Other?) 

What is your greatest writing weakness?  What is your greatest writing strength?
