The 5 Step Writing Process
On this page you will learn about the 5 steps to writing a good story. It will show you how to prewrite, write, revise, proofread, and publish. This will teach you how to write a better story. Now get on your horse and ride into the world of writing.
1. Prewriting- Before you start your story you have to think about what you want to write. This is called Prewriting. Something you can do is make a story web. That is when you think of ideas to make your story, like who is going to be in it, the setting, the plot, and the problem/solution and organize them graphically.
2. Writing-This is the step to writing your first draft. You put all your ideas that you had into paragraph form.
3. Edit- After you have written your rough draft of your story it is time to edit your story. You give it to a friend or a parent and let them read it through. They need to check if your spelling, punctuation, grammar, and capitals are in the right place and if everything is ready for a final copy.
4. Proofreading- Ok now you must read over your story and make sure that there are no missed mistakes and everything is the way you like it.
5. Publishing- Wow. It is already time for you to write your final copy. Take your rough draft and copy it on a computer or paper and then you are done!
(Before you write your final copy make sure everything is the way you like it.)
