According to the writing process, once the first draft is completed, which step should follow?

  1. Publishing

  2. Editing

  3. Brainstorming

  4. Proofreading

The correct answer is: Editing

After completing the first draft when writing, the next step should be editing. This involves reviewing and revising the draft to improve the overall content, clarity, and organization of the writing. Option A, publishing, occurs after the piece has been thoroughly edited and refined. Option C, brainstorming, typically takes place before writing the first draft and involves generating ideas and organizing them into a clear structure. Option D, proofreading, should take place after editing to catch any grammar or spelling errors.
