Revision
On revision…What does it mean? How do you conduct revision?
Revision to me is making something one has written better. As a writer you are close to the piece you are writing and know what you want to say and how it should sound. However, when writing it is easy to overlook errors for these reasons. It is very helpful to have a ‘second pair of eyes’ look at your writing to minimize or even eliminate these overlooked errors.
The way I revise is to first do is to correct my errors the best I can on my own. After I think the piece sounds and looks pretty good I ask someone to look at it also. After I get feedback I look at and correct what I think needs done. After this I may have someone else look at the piece as a double check.
