Read and Revise

The most interesting concept i found while reading chapter eleven was to use multiple drafts. I have always only done a rough draft, and then a final draft in all my writings. I never even considered any more than that. After reading this however i learned that most successful writers use multiple drafts before they reach a final product. One of the most helpful things about writing multiple drafts is that it allows writers to overcome the limits of short term memory. That way they can have all their ideas on paper and add new ones when they come instead of trying to absorb all the knowledge on the subject they're writing about. Multiple drafts also let the writers come up with new ideas and put them all on paper, and not even worry about correctness untill later in the process of writing. It makes it alot easier to go back and eliminate useless parts of a paper as well. Some drafts can come after peer editing or others can come after the writer learns new information on the subject he's writing about. Also, when a writers produces multiple drafts it is more likely that his work will be more thorough, full of information, and grammatically correct. Overall i'd say writing multiple drafts makes the process of finishing a paper alot easier.
