Revising My Brains Out

Through my years of education, I have finally found the best way for me to revise and edit my papers. I first type everything I have to say about my topic, them I delete and edit out different sentences or ideas that don't relate to my topic. After that I create my rough draft from that information. I left that rough draft sit for a few days then revisit my paper with a fresh look on it to start to revise. I read over the paper first, and then dissect each paragraph separately. I go through and edit and then when I think it is pretty good I read it out loud to myself, then usually edit again. I continue this process throughout the entire paper until I am finished. Then I go through and read the whole paper through twice out loud to insure it all flows together. When I am all done if have someone else read my paper. Most of the time its my parents, and they give me good tips and help me correct different mistakes. My then I feel like I have done everything possible, I save and print out my work. I feel like as long as I am proud of the work I have produced and gave it my all then I have written a pretty good essay.
