Methods Paragraph

It took me until I was in about tenth grade to figure out a writing strategy that works for me. I start by writing an outline or a journal of some sort to get all of the ideas that I am planning on using in my paper in one place. Then I would wait until the deadline of the paper is closer because I tend to write better and create better ideas when I am writing under pressure. If I leave too much time to write the paper, I usually get distracted by other things. So, I applied this method to this paper and sat down by my computer with my notes. I wrote until I hit the dreaded writer's block that everyone encounters. When that happened I took a break and listened to some music to clear my head. I got many writer's blocks while writing this paper, and I stopped and listened to music after most of them. While I was listening to music, I looked over my notes to make sure I didn't forget anything and that I included everything in my paper. With using these methods, before I knew it, I had a completed paper.

  1. This sums up your process of writing Part 1, but what I want to know is what Methods you used to collect concrete data about your writing process, which is essential for Part 2.
