Three Levels of Revision

I actually thought that "revising on all three levels" was very helpful to my writing.  I edited my essay about love using this technique.  Going through and reading what you're saying to everyone and actually changing what you said instead of just leaving it, really makes for a better essay.  I ended up changing my essay quite a bit, and making it so much better.  Also, the muscles part of the revision, which is the organization of the piece, actually led me to change the order of my information and points.  Before learning this technique, all I would do was fix spelling and punctuation errors if there were any, and add anything obvious that I forgot.  Now, I will try to incorporate this technique into any further essays I may be assigned and even letters/emails I may have to write.
