Chapter 3 Reflection

Changing Writing has a lot of good and useful information for your writing process. The writing process is very important for each paper one writes. In the beginning, the book says to find somewhere that is quiet with no distractions. When I write I mainly do it in my room where it is quiet most of the time and I can be comfy. I don’t turn off my phone because every so often after getting work done I allow myself to have some breaks where I check my phone as a reward to working hard. I would say I write better in the afternoon because in the morning and night I am just very tired so in the afternoon I focus a lot better.
The book focuses a lot on the PACT system which I include in my writing process but mostly think more about the purpose and the audience. Purpose and audience are the important aspects to start off with so I think about those first and once I have those figured out I move onto the context and text. Many times, I talk it through with my friends that are willing to help and they offer some really good feedback that is useful to my paper. Finding sources can be a bit tricky because you have to find relevant ones that are just write for your paper. Researching can take a while to find the perfect sources, but once it is complete writing the paper is fairly easy. Freewriting also really helped me I would write my opinions and facts and then go back later and rearrange it so that it went with the flow. I figured out I need a lot of motivation to write a large paper so I would set up little rewards for myself if I got so much done.
