Which of these is NOT a key step in the writing process?

  1. Outlining

  2. Researching

  3. Editing

  4. Rewriting

The correct answer is: Rewriting

The key step in the writing process include outlining, researching, and editing, as these are all essential in organizing ideas, gathering information, and refining the content. Rewriting, while also an important part of the writing process, is not a key step as it typically occurs after the initial draft has been completed and is used to make minor changes or edits. Therefore, D is the correct answer as it is not as crucial of a step as the others in the writing process.
