Revising Your Own Work

When writing or typing up a paper, many steps must be followed to ensure you create a great piece of work.  Probably the most important of these steps is revision.  Revision makes you look back at your paper and realize where and how everything is falling into place.  When doing so, look at the big picture of your topic.  Think about: does my paper follow the criteria? Are my ideas in order and in a neat fashion?  Am I sticking to the main subject?  All important things when reviewing your paper, or even someone else's work.  Make sure all grammar is correct, and that your paper fits your selected audience.  Also, design is an aspect you should take a look at when revising your work.  Making sure it looks appealing and the format is used correctly.
