I am definitely guilty of procrastination, whether it be putting off returning my grandma's call or waiting until the last possible second to do my English homework. Regardless of the situation I should procrastinate less and plan more.
What type of writer am I?
That is why it is with a heavy heart that I must admit that my writing style falls under the "Procrastinators" category.
Does my writing style reflect any other approaches?
Not really. I occasionally plan, rarely revise, and hardly ever sequentially compose.
Am I successful?
Sometimes. My writing style is very peculiar, and at times I consider myself to be part of a new breed of procrastinators.
I find that if I am given time to revise I end up restarting. If I am given time to think then I grow to dislike my piece which leads me to restarting the night before.
Strengths Weaknesses
-ability to work - work is sloppy and can
well under pressure often be unorganized
-more errors due to lack of
proofreading
Should I try a different approach?
Yes! I think the best writing process would be to combine bits and pieces of all the "writing categories". I should take the good parts/strengths of the heavy revisers, planners, and sequential composers and essentially find a happy medium.
