The methods I prefer to utilize when writing a composition vary greatly, depending on the type of writing I am preparing. When writing an academic work such as a research paper, I have been taught and developed methods that are quite effective in this endeavor.
First, I write an outline consisting of a topic sentence, a thesis statement and three subtopics w/i the thesis. Then, I write out an outline of the bodies of the following paragraphs. Last, I write the outline for the Conclusive paragraphs, restating thesis etc.
Next, I begin to perform my research and find my sources. Once this is accomplished I can begin the actual Pre-Writing of my paper. I don't necessarily follow any strict pattern here; sometimes I start at the beginning and go step by step, other times I might write my conclusion or supporting paragraphs first, then fill in other parts as I go.
Once I have a finished draft, the most important method comes to play-REVISION! I go through and revise my work by doing everything from editing grammar to moving or even deleting sentences and paragraphs, to tightening up thesis and subtopic statements. After doing all of this, I look to a completed piece ready to hand in!
These are the usual methods that I use to do my best to produce a completed writing composition!
