Even though there is a long and hard process while writing essays, the revision process also requires writers to revised their paper’s multiple times in order to have a good paper, because it allows one to polish and re-polish their essay so it will reflect one’s intentions in the end. The film we watch today stated many things I did not understand before. Things like how the revision process can be longer than the actual writing process itself. When I wrote my Tupac paper, “Tupac’s Resilience.” It took the longest with making my revisions because my essay was not making the point I wanted it to. But after many revisions, my paper became perfect.

Freewrite --- Revision Strategies
The writing process is made up of various parts; revision is the most important thing in writing an excellent paper. It provides a chance to adjust your sentences to make your writing flow smoother. By examining each paragraph, it gives you a chance to really look at what has been written and make it better. The process itself will help you become a better writer; because you can see the errors you are making and correct them. When writing a paper it is important to make sure that you do not write narratives.
There are a lot of parts of the revision process,which can only make your writing better, because it gives you time to find the errors that you made and correct them.

Revision Strategies reminded me that it is important to revise. There are also many ways to approach writing, so it is important for writers to know what to include. The whole point of revision is to write it so it could be something readers can understand; readers want writers to prove a point. I learned what is important in a paper such as, subject and audience, organization of the paragraphs, paragraphs should make its point, and the sentences should follow in logic order. It would also help writers to write down ideas for the paper before worrying about its purpose.

Although there are many parts to the writing process, revising your work is an important part to writing a good paper, because it allows you to eliminate uneccessary pieces that hinder the reader from understanding your paper. Not many writers are able to produce perfect work in their first draft. Writers must go back and use the revision process so that they fix their errors. The key things people must always focus on is who's the audience, whats the objective, and what are the major points. By using the revision process writers will be able to improve their work.

Revising Stradegies is a very helpfull source because it teaches a lot of how to write the correct form of paragraphs in essay. IT is a very helpful source because it a great guidence to improving your work. It tought me to always revised my work which is one of the most important concepts in proof writting an essay because it allows you to elimante uneccessary pieces that hinder the reader from being able to understand your paper. In writting a paper the writter must always focus on the audience who will be reading your paper, the objective of your paper which is the thesis statements, the arguments,and making shure that your paper makes sense on whatever the story is that your trying to identify. You should always organized your paragraphs for a better understanding of your paper.The writter should always write down ideas for the paper before worring about its purspose.

Even though writing essay has a hard process to go through, repeating to revise essays many times will make a successful essay in the end. When one writes their essays, there are going to be more then one mistake that needs to be corrected. To revise over and over will make the essay a better essay then the last one. To make an essay, one needs to organize their essays then revising it to make sure the essay make sense and is on point. More the errors are to be corrected, the better the essay will get and when everything is on point, you have yourself a great essay.

The whole writing process is important, but the revision of an essay is what allows a writer to go back and improve their essay. There are many steps to the revision process. The four most important are: looking at the overal paper (objective), the papers organization, the examination of each paragraph, and the focus on sentences and words. All of these steps can help a writer make an essay better. It is not expected for an essay to be perfect the first time around, which is why a writer must always go back and review their writing.
Even though writing an English essay is very difficult you make errors and correct them. The revision is the most important part about writing. It helps you become a better writer. Writing strategies allow you to get familiar with your paper so you know what your mistakes are. It takes me a long time to write because I revise my papers more than three times on an average. Revising has helped me a lot.
Many beginning writers often take too long writing because they often revise while they are writing. This strategy may not be the best when it comes to being time efficient. Revising your essay after you have written down all your thoughts is the best strategy.

to revise your essay is key to having a good essay. most writers edit there work as the write which is a mistake becuase it side tracks you from writting. the video said that its more efficent to write , then revise, and then edit. people think "revise" means to re wirte, which is false. revise means to reread. i found the video to be very informative

Revising your essay is a very important part in writing. They say if you write a letter in business you should throw the first two away and send the third draft. This shows how many mistakes or miscommunication can be avoided by simply revising you essay. I have often sent a paper in too hastily only to find I could have used a better word or better sentence structure.
