The Creative Revision Process of Play your Part Lyric

Playing the Part I 

Revision 1

Lyric

Revision 1 features strikethrough markings for deletions, insertions, and replacements. Yet, not all words and lines deleted by strikethrough are replaced. Keeping in mine that creative revision processes are fluid, words deleted need not be replaced in this revision nor any other. Fluidity enables this creative revision process to reshape and reform the page as necessary.

Revision 1

Lyric

The second page continues the process of the first, but, yet, the try is differnitiatiated by the "II". The page is a continuation of the first, but, also, the page is a distinct entity. Handrawn spirals after the last line end the handwritten lines and decorate the page. Noticably, less words are written on this page than the first.

Final

Lyric

With a different title and on a single page, the final is still decorated with spirals after the final line. Substantially less markings and insertions, this creative revision process showcases fluidity. Particularly for creative works, the revision process may be a significant component.
