They process of writing a book involves four different stages: a blank piece of paper accepts anything and first stage therefore involves a lot of free writing around an object or a plot which at first is an idea and therefore subject to changes/modification as the writing proceeds; the second stage involves a lot of research around the subject(s), and leads to the third stage, rewriting a large portion of the initial script; the fourth stage involes reorginizing and proofreading.
