Imagine you’re putting a movie together and you are hard at work in the editing studio. Here you get to view all the bits of writing and reorder them, changing sentences and words where necessary and adding missing detail. You’re in editing mode, crafting your writing to a polished final product.
Revision involves:
- Adding new information, details or descriptions
- Cutting out unnecessary words
- Reordering information, words, sentences and paragraphs
If necessary, print your work out, get that red pen out and start marking your own work like a school teacher would.
Don’t be precious about your work – revise and rewrite to improve your writing.
