"Comparing Writing Processes"
How does your partner's writing process differ from your own?
My writing process and Gabrielle's are quite the same. The only difference that I have seen is that I spend a lot more time revising and editing than I do actually writing the paper. Usually, all of the words fall into place for me as I am writing and while I edit and revise as I go. Gabrielle also writes a pretty basic outline. My outline is detailed. It covers every topic and almost every idea and thought that I put into my paper, so, it is more like a rough draft and an outline. Other than those two things, Gabrielle's writing process is similar to mine in that we both do not spend a lot of time on our actual paper. It sounds like we throw our paper together, but we do not. We plan our outline so well that when we go to write our papers, we do not have to do much editing, proofreading, or revising. This is more of a non-blocker writing process. I may have more of a blocker's writing process than Gabrielle does, because I take more time on the outline. More than most people would. Some people do not write an outline, but it is very helpful when they have one. An outline helps me stay focused and organized on what I am writing. Gabrielle thinks that if she has a good outline, she can skip around if she gets stuck. We have a few differences but there are a lot of similarities as well.
