    times) until you reach your destination. Writing does not happen all at one time.

    Rather, many steps are required from the

    time you first think about a piece ofwriting until the time that you consideryourself finished.

    collected information into words

    write a draft you are more

    knowledgeable than you werepreviously and, thus, better

    prepared to write.

    areas could be expanded? (Go back to your

    prewriting notes to get ideas you didnt use).

    Rearranging

    Do you need to reorder your paragraphs to make

    your argument flow better?

    Removing

    Drop anything irrelevant!

    Quoting, Paraphrasing, and Summarizing= the three ways ofincorporating other writers' work to support your own writing.

    Quotations must be identical to the original, using a narrowsegment of the source. They must match the source

    document word for word and must be attributed to the originalauthor. Paraphrasing involves putting a passage from source

    material into your own words. It must also be attributed to theoriginal source. Paraphrased material is usually shorter thanthe original passage, taking a somewhat broader segment of

    the source and condensing it slightly. Summarizing involves putting the main idea(s) into your own

    words, including only the main point(s) Summaries aresignificantly shorter than the original and take a broadoverview of the source material.
