E V A L U A T E
The third step, or the evaluating step is always the hardest for me. After waiting two to three days after writing my first draft of the piece, I sit down and complete this step. During the evaluating step, I pay close attention while re-reading my work. I ask myself a few questions in order to see if I have the basic essentials of a good piece of writing. I am my biggest critic, so sometimes the evaluating step frustrates me more than any other step in my writing process.
