Now that you have your outline for Exercise 12, draft your product review. Practice freewriting for this activity to avoid moving to the revision stage too quickly. Don’t worry about formatting for this exercise; just practice moving from an outline to a written document.

Exercise 12

Prepare to write a review of a product you used or purchased recently. Use the process outlined in this chapter:

● Brainstorm ideas. What do you think is important to include in your review? Draw a mind map.

● Create a hierarchy of ideas. How will you organize your main and supporting points?

● Develop an outline. Write a more detailed, sequential plan for the product review.
