Week 7 Review

For this weeks review I decided to write about the fun and exploration post which can be found here. The title of the post is called Writing and Revision, so it immediately caught my attention. This year I'm really trying to put more effort, work, and dedication into my writing, even if it's just for myself, so I'm also interested in reading anything that may have to do with writing or helpful tips. The post included this picture of a quote:

I remember when I was younger I used to think that having to turn in a rough draft of a paper, essay, project, story, etc. to the teacher before the final draft was pointless (boy was I wrong). I always wanted to just jump in, turn in the final draft, and be done with it. But I definitely now know how extremely, extremely important it is to revise your work. In order to become a better writer you really need to go over your writing multiple times and look for mistakes. Doing this repeatedly truly helps your writing be the best it can be. I think it's one of the most important steps in the writing process. I'm glad I realized this sooner rather than later!
