During the planning step of process writing, it is important for you to:
a. decide on a topic and on whether your process analysis will be instructional or informative.
b. These are decisions to make earlier, during your rhetorical star analysis.
c. decide whether to organize your process analysis chronologically, spatially, or in some other order.
d. Although planning is the time for organizing, in process writing, steps are chronologically organized, so planning focuses on making sure steps are in clear chronological order.
