In this lesson, you will continue planning your informative work by developing an outline. Some writing students feel that outlining is “busy work,” however, skilled authors know that a good outline is like a map: it keeps writers from getting lost during the publishing process by providing a planned route for writing the work
An outline has several benefits.
One benefit is that it makes it easy to change a workflow before a lot of time has been spent writing.
Additionally, it can even prevent writer’s block because if a particular section seems difficult to write, an author can use their outline to find another section to work on for a while without losing track of the planned order of the work
Also, in a writing class like this, outlining allows your instructor to guide your work before you even begin to write it.
