Comparing Writing Processes

My writing process differs from my partner in just a few ways, but in many ways they are similar.  My writing process is different because I usually do not take the time to brainstorm ideas unlike Sarah. I go right into the outline if I even make one. Sarah takes the time to brainstorm ideas and then take those ideas to form a good outline of her ideas to make different paragraphs that flow and go together well. Also, Sarah writes better with pen and paper and then types it looking for grammar and spelling errors while I like to write by typing on the computer and waiting for the little squiggly line to appear underneath within seconds. For me it is more of a preference than anything, I do not see a difference in my writing whether it is typed or written first. Pretty much everything else is very similar for both of us.  I believe it is this way because we both absolutely hate writing.  When it comes to writing we both have to be in the mood. If we are not in the right mood, nothing will get done.  This is part of the reason why we procrastinate and wait until the last minute to write and finish the paper.  I know sometimes right when the work is assigned, I will start but then put it off until two nights before it is due.  Sarah only spends an hour on editing her paper which at times can be more than I do because I wait until the last minute to where I hardly have enough time to read over my paper before I turn it in. During the editing process, Sarah looks to change words and find better fits to help be more descriptive and have different word choice. I hardly ever go back through and look for that unless the teacher specifically states to look for that when editing.  I think every ones writing process has similarities and differences depending on how much they enjoy writing as well as their abilities with writing.
