Writing Process

Writing this paper has been pretty difficult for me, because I'm not totally sure if the way I wrote it makes sense to someone else, so I'm unsure if I should continue writing this way, as I find more research or format my paper entirely differently. Since I'm not sure where to go from here, I had problems getting to just 5 pages this is because I'm not totally sure if I should include more subtopics or elaborate more on the things I referred to already. One of my other problems has been I'm not sure exactly how long to make this rough draft, I have more research that I can include in my paper, but I'm not sure how long this rough draft should be. Some people I have talked to have said their papers were much longer than mine, but I don't know where to go from where I am now. This unsureness has been the biggest problem, I think my paper will be much improved when I get some feedback from someone about what things my paper is missing or could use more or less of.
The research at first wasn't bad, because I didn't have much problem finding my articles once I got into doing the research. I found articles then I was able to find different words or ideas to look up to find different articles. This process has been really helpful to me because I was able to find so many articles, which will definitely help on future research projects. The biggest problem for me was getting through all of the research, especially when they talk about their method of studying because it is so dry, and most of the words were pretty confusing so it took a pretty long time to get through it. Overall I think my paper has a good start but it can definitely be improved a lot.
