• Forming intentions - The writer clarifies the purpose for writing, gathers information, and tests ideas. It involves thinking, talking, remembering, reflecting,
   searching for, and organizing information.

• Composing and drafting - the writer is getting thoughts and ideas down on paper, rereading, reorganizing, and revising.

• Correcting and publishing - the writer corrects, proofreads, checks spelling, grammar, punctuation, and neatness. The text is ready for others to read.

• Outcomes - The writer shares published work, gets responses from readers, and reflects on their own words.
