Drafting

You wil I have time to revise and proofread later. As you write, leave w ide margins and plenty of space between each I ine. That way, you w i ll have room to make changes later. As you practi ce writing,you wi ll develop your own personal wr i t ing process. Some writers begin w i th the introduction paragraph. Other writers begin wi th the body paragraphs, wr ite a strong conclus ion, and then go back and write an introduct i on. There are no rules for this part of wr i ting. Find the best way for you to get your ideas on paper. Write your draft on the pages that follow or on your own notebook paper.
