One of the most complex writing interactions is when writers review and modify a text prepared by themselves, that is, a self-regulated writing interaction. A methodological possibility for the study of these interactions is when writers have direct contact with what they are writing, and it is they who serve as their own reader for the correction of their writing. In this study, the effects of direct contact of writers with the referent on the modifications of the descriptions made were evaluated. Twenty participating writers described in writing the route to go from one place to another, traveled the described route, and corrected their own texts at different times. Then, eighty readers traveled the route described by the writers to assess the accuracy of the texts. The results show that those who modified their texts after traveling the route rewrote their texts more precisely, but not more congruently.
