I wrote about 14 – 14.5 pages of my paper so far. I got to all of my sections but haven’t done my intro or conclusion yet. I wanted to get all of my thoughts about the readings and secondary sources out and then go back and organize it and write my intro and conclusion. I’ve re-organized my sections a little bit but still haven’t decided on a final structure yet. I also want to go back in and fully revise the way I wrote things. I wanted to just get all of my thoughts down, then go in and make it sound more like an academic writing piece that could be published. We haven’t finished reading the “Academic Writing” book yet, plus I thought that if I tried to write academically from the start, I knew it would be hard to get myself to write. I thought it would be easier for me to just put everything down then go back in and reword and restructure. That’s what I think I’m going to focus on for our next drafting day in class.
