When I revise my work, I tend to overlook mistakes. I tend to think that most things I wrote were correct and therefore I don’t fix them. Sometimes, I tend to want to fix everything because I think everything I wrote was wrong. For my college paper, I spent a lot of time revising it because I had my teacher read it. I had to reach my word limit, and cutting things out and adding things in was difficult. From that process, I learned how to have useful information in my works. Revising is reconsidering or altering what you’ve already wrote. Editing is correcting and condensing what you’ve wrote. Proofreading is reading the work and marking it for errors. I agree with the points Dethier made about how revision can be pointless, and it can make things worse. Because when I revise my work, I start overdoing the assignment. I also agree with how sometimes we don’t even know how to revise.
