Rough Draft Process Analysis
When beginning to write an essay everyone has their own method of doing so. Some may like to
brainstorm while others may prefer to go straight into writing about their topic. I personally
beginning every essay by collecting ideas about my topic before coordinating them into a type of
diagram, next I proceed to do my rough draft before revising over the paper and finally composing
my final draft. The point of the writing process is to help break everything down so ideas can be
organized and everything can make perfect sense for not just the writer but also the reader.
Writing an essay can be difficult if a person does not know how or where to begin. I personally
believe the first step of writing is to list down ideas about the topic. After...show more content...
Proofreading and revising is a very crucial step in the writing process. If a person does not
proofread then the essay they worked on may not make sense and may overall confuse the reader.
Using correct punctuation shows how sentences are supposed to be read. Once I have made sure
all my sentences are grammatically correct I then compose my final copy of the essay. Writing
can be difficult if not done correctly. That is why there is a writing process to follow. Using some
type of way to group ideas together help coordinate how the essay will go. Then once the ideas are
put together the rough draft can be formed and edited. After everything has been writing accordantly
the essay can then be turned in. Some may think the writing process is just some more additional
steps to getting their essay done but overall it makes the writing experience easier and more

I have been studying and learning English for more than 11 years, and of course, I am willing to
do my best to improve its. However, whatever I did, writing skill still is my biggest weakness. For
me, during the writing process, thinking up the ideas for a specific topic and expressing those are a
real problem. However, after finished English 905 class, my writing skill has been changed
significantly. That class has offered me the ability to be aware of my personal strengths as well as
weaknesses as a writer and also provided me methods to strengthen them. And now, I feel
comfortable with writing compositions and expect to produce higher work. Therefore, in the hope
of learning how to become a more effective writer and transform my mediocre work into a
well–composed essay is the reason why I continued to register English 908 class. Obviously, the
first step in the writing process is brainstorming the idea for that topic. Unlike freewriting in which I
can write down my current feelings or thoughts without caring of grammar rules, punctuation,
spelling, etc. Unfortunately, when having a specific topic, it takes me more time to come up with
the ideas than other people. After fifteen or twenty minutes of warming up, my head is overloaded
because of too much information appears at the same time and I don't know how to organize it.
Then, I need to struggle against how to put that information in order and wonder should I cross
some out. As a result of this, I always start my

English Reflection Paper
Being able to learn what it takes to succeed in a college level class will be a great tool for me to use
when I am continuing my education at a four year university. English 101 was my first college
level English class and was definitely an eye opening experience. I was able to see what my
professors will expect from my work, while also growing as a writer. Even though this was a life
altering experience, I did have some frustrations and struggles along the way. The quick deadlines
and flexible topic choices posed a problem for me. However, some of the essays assigned have
turned out to be some of my favorite writings that I have ever produced. This past semester has
allowed me to create an extensive writing portfolio filled with my journey of writing growth.
Having class only two days a week was a new and interesting setup. The deadlines approached
more quickly than expected, and I believe that is because of the unfamiliarity I had with the class
setup. In my high school English classes, I was use to everyday instruction, and being able to work
on my assignments during class. While writing my first paper, "Lefties: The People Who Are Still
There When Things Are Not Right," I struggled the most with the deadlines. This new journey made
me realize that I needed to change how I complete my assignments. More time writing at home was
necessary to complete a well thought out paper that I would be proud of. To be honest, I struggled
with this throughout the whole semester.

Gwen Wilde's essay "Why the Pledge of Allegiance Should Be Revised" highlights key reasons
why the Pledge of Allegiance should be changed to be less divisive towards Americans who do not
believe in a God. Wilde begins her essay by informing the audience of the countless alterations the
pledge has gone through over the years. The earliest version of the pledge, which was published in
1892, left out the words "under God." The words "under God" were not added until 1954 when
president Dwight D. Eisenhower approved the pledge we all know today. Wilde goes into detail
about the hypocrisy illustrated within the Pledge of Allegiance. She explains how the words "under
God" are needlessly divisive in a nation that is said to be indivisible. However,

Qualities of a Good Essay
Qualities of a good essay
Given below is the process that should be followed for essay writing. 1Select the topic of your
essay, be careful about its wording. 1. Choose the central idea, or thesis, of your essay. For example:
Information technology has revolutionized the way we work. 2. Outline your essay into introductory,
body and summary paragraphs. 3. The introductory paragraph begins with an interesting sentence.
For example: Home workers have grown from 150,000 to over 12 million in the past 5 years thanks
to the wonders of the computer. 4. After this first sentence, add your thesis statement from above. 5.
Use one sentence to introduce each body paragraph to follow. For example: The Internet has made

It turned out to be sound advice as my friend is very good at presenting her arguments. What's
more, her father never lost a court case. He was 76–0 with law suits against him. Not too bad, eh?
Below is an effective outline to use when you write your essay. Don't forget to include as many of
the points as possible to make yourargument essay even more effective.
Argument Essay Outline:
Paragraph 1: State Your Proposition– Requires a general introduction of the problem plus your
opinion about said problem.
Paragraph 2–3: Anticipate Opposition – State history of the problem including failed attempts at
resolution of the problem (include sources)
Paragraph 4–6: Expand Your Argument– Extent of the problem i.e., who is affected, how bad is it,
etc (include sources)
Paragraphs 7–8: Anticipate Consequences – Repercussions of the problem not being solved. (include
sources)
Paragraphs 9–10: Connect with the Facts – Anticipate objections and make concessions while
connecting your arguments with the facts.
Paragraph 11: Conclude – Restatement of thesis and summary of main ideas.
Something found in all good argument essays are appeals to the following three areas. People are
more likely to be persuaded when you touch upon all three of the following areas as opposed to just
one or two of them. 1. Reason 2. Ethics 3. Emotion
Not all people are persuaded by logic. (My wife, for example ;–) Likewise, some require an appeal

English 111 Reflective Report
My goals this semester for English 111 are to improve my organization skills, spelling, plurals and
passives. I knows that it going to be a challenge for me to improve everything in very short time. I
will have to do my best in every assignment and works harder than others students. Everything I do
I put my best effort into it and I hope that my effort in this class will help me improve my writing
skill. This is only a start to a harder classes and I know the efforts I put into the works will not

How My Writing Has Improved
After this semester of English 102, at Bristol Community College I feel that I have gained the
skill to articulate what I want to convey to the reader in many ways. I don't just look at
grammatical error, but instead I look for ways to make my sentences more effective and concise.
Nevertheless, I hope that this strategy will continue to help me improve my writing even further
on in the future. My strong points as a reader have also definitely improved after reading the
poems and stories we experienced this semester. Writing has been an important form of
expression for me. I find myself to be very soft spoken and speaking verbally is usually difficult
for me because I can't always seem to find the right words to say. I feel that I am more expressive
and have more control over what I want to say. While this semester progressed toward its end, I
have learned new writing skills and gradually learned how to engage with audiences. This skill
was very useful in meeting my course goals in English 102. I believe that I have grown at
organization and careful stream my thoughts as well. Before I would just begin writing my papers
without any plans or organization, along with no definite idea of where I would be going with the
assignments, but throughout this course I've learned that you should base your paper around your
thesis statement. Another skill I took from this class was to value my classmate's responses, from
their reactions made me much more aware that my main ideas

Cesar Chavez Rhetorical Analysis
Cesar Chavez, a civil rights leader fighting for improving pay and working conditions of farmers,
employs the use of nonviolence resistance in his role as a leader of the United Farm Workers. As
a child, Chavez and his family worked as farmers on a field as migrant workers who were most
likely treated in an unjust manner and thus, he dedicated his life to improving the conditions for all
farmers. To honor Martin Luther King Jr. on the 10th anniversary of his death, Chavez wrote to a
religious magazine that helps people in need about the benefits of nonviolent resistance. Throughout
his letter, Chavez applies rhetorical devices such as pathos, diction, and juxtaposition to persuade
and inform people about how powerful and effective nonviolence techniques can be for civil rights.
Multiple times, throughout the text, Chavez uses pathos to appeal emotionally to his audience.
Chavez builds a connection and empathy with the readers and persuades them to be people who
fight for causes nonviolently. In the sixth paragraph Chaves states that, "men and women who are
truly concerned about people are non violent by nature. These people become violent when the deep
concern they have for people is frustrated and when they are faced with seemingly insurmountable
odds." Chavez states that everyone who actually cares about people should be nonviolent, that they
shouldn't have to resort to violence because they don't need it. This quote builds a connection and
causes self–reflection for the

My Writing Experience
Throughout this semester, I have personally developed and improved as a writer, through the
weekly writing tasks set for the writers Journal. This procedure of composing Journal entries and
assessment tasks involves critical reflection on the information provided and on myself
developing those skills. During my school years, books were always as a part of my life, reading
gave me joy, swept me towards my memories and took me along Journies never been before.
However, I never thought of myself as a writer, composing short stories, writings and texts for
others to read. I have realised that my goal is to become an influential educator to children who are
yet to discover their potentials, goals and interests. Loan and Muir (2017) say "as teachers,...show

Notes lead me to all sorts of thoughts without having the necessity of remaining revolved around one
theme or topic, prompting my interest in more writing opportunities. Notes can incorporate the
majority of the thoughts and things that you consider, not exactly what you will use to answer the
task like a journal entry would. This opportunity, I have discovered, motivates you throughout and
eventually leads you on answering a claim, since you can glance back at all of your thoughts and
check whether there is any connections or similitude within the written piece. Philip Pullman
suggests that "writers are magpies", meaning catching information and ideas for opportunities of
written work. This is reflected in my own experience of note taking for my writers Journal, adopting
new discoveries and ideas into my writing

Powder by Tobias Wolff Essay
Powder Powder, a short story written by Tobias Wolff, is about a boy and his father on a
Christmas Eve outing. As the story unfolds, it appears to run deeper than only a story about a boy
and his father on a simple adventure in the snow. It is an account of a boy and his father's
relationship, or maybe the lack of one. Powder is narrated by a grown–up version of the boy. In this
tale, the roles of the boy and his father emerge completely opposite than what they are supposed to
be but may prove to be entirely different from the reader's first observation. The father's character
begins to develop with the boy's memory of an outing to a nightclub to see the jazz legend,
Thelonius Monk. This is the first sign of the father's...show more content...
He likes to plan far in advance even to the point of bothering his teachers for future homework
assignments and numbering his clothes on hangers so the schedule of wear is equal. It is very
common for children to exhibit some controlling behavior like the boy in the story because it gives
the child a small piece of control in their own life. ("Brain Psychics") This is due to the lack of
control on their parents' relationship and the inability to control separation and divorce. This is quite
believable and allows the reader to relate to this situation, especially if a divorced single parent or
one who was a child that grew up in a divorced home. The first feeling of this story is that the boy
and his father struggle with their relationship, but as it unfolds, the reader sees how they do care for
each other. It also becomes easier to spot the difficulties of communicating within a brokenfamily.
The father does a fine job to of turning the boy's scheduling obsessions into a positive for the boy
by noting it as one of his strong points. This story also paints the picture of a father who would not
give up on regaining his time with his son. It shows the father desperately trying to rectify the
mistrust issues he created because he stated to the boy when they were sitting in the diner after the
highway patrol redirected them away from the snow–covered route home that she would never
forgive him if he did not get the boy home for

Essay on Writing Experience

like that. Since I have been taking college English, I can tell my writing has improved a lot. In the

I need to learn to quit thinking as much on what I want to write about and how to write about a topic
and just starting jotting stuff down in outline form as it comes to mind. Run–ons and fragments I
need to be able to spot and fix right away or I really need to not have any in my papers at all. My
goals are to write papers and not have to reassure myself that maybe I need to do more research or
have more data or even have to rethink my whole topic over. I would love to have the knowledge
to be a tutor someday and teach other people how to properly write papers, paragraphs, essays,
and maybe even books. To have excellent skills in writing will definitely be a great advantage in
my nursing profession. In nursing, I will have to do lots of charting on my patients. I will have to
do health presentations on various subjects such as exercising, how our society eats, and sex
education if I want to be a course instructor. Researching information on all of those topics I will
have to make sure I do an excellent job on and collect accurate information and statistics so that I
can compare to other sources. Dictating to the doctor means that I will need to write properly so
that he understands what I am saying. Other nurses will have to be able to understand what I am
talking about by my writing skills when doing shift changes. I will have to be very precise so that

A Well-Written Essay Analysis
A well–written essay is one that follows the specific structure in order to convey necessary
information in relation to the writer's thesis, without being redundant. In regards to this essay, all of
the information is relevant to the overall theme: the high quality of mystery books produced by
Agatha Christie. This essay is very satisfying, but can be slightly adjusted to produce an even
better written piece. The essay starts off with a question, "Who does not enjoy a good mystery
book?" I believe that this question is not very appealing to all readers, as those who do not enjoy
the mystery genre may discontinue reading the essay. The hook can be replaced with a quote, for
example, to open the minds of those readers who have no yet been turned

English Composition Reflective Essay
English composition has taught me everything I know now, from how to effectively write a thesis

class has helped me understand the importance of documentation in a research skill. English
composition showed me that sources either make or break your essay. The true honesty of this
course was that I am glad I took it. At first, I hate this class so much, because this class required so
much extra work to be done, but over time I realized that the extra work really pushes you over the

Researchers Henderson and Zimbardo argue that one explanation of the cultural difference between
Japanese and Israelis lies in the way each culture deals with attributing credit for success and blame
for failure. (2005, p. 20). "In Japan, an individual's performance success is credited externally to
parents, grandparents, teachers and others, while failure is entirely blamed on the person. Therefore
the Japanese learn not to take risks in public and rely instead on group–shared decisions."
(Henderson and Zimbardo, 2005, p.22). In Israel, the situation is entirely reversed according to
Henderson and Zimbardo. "Failure is externally attributed to parents, teachers, friends and other
sources, while all performance success is credited to the individual's enterprise" (2005, p.22).
The consequence is that Israelis are free to take risks since there is nothing to lose by trying and
everything to gain.(2005). Paragraph 5 Covers 3rd environmental cause In addition to family and
culture, technology may play a role as well. In the United States, the number of young people who
report being shy, has risen from 40 percent to 50 percent in recent years (Payne, 2005). The rising
number of shy young people may be "due in part to the growing dependence on non–human forms of
communication, coming about as a result of our huge advances in technology" (Payne, 2005, p.6).

What Makes Good Writing? Essay
This for me was a very hard question to answer due to the fact that its an opinion, and there are
very many types of writing. Different structures, ideas, metaphors, and concepts. You have to
remember to ask, whether the writing in itself is good in my point of view or not, has to answer to
my specific guidelines which in your case might not be the same. The first and foremost of the many
guidelines is how the author set's up the introductory sentence or better yet, the hook. If the author
for example, is writing a cook–book, his first sentence should be appealing to the sense of taste. For
example, If you are writing on how to bake a chocolate cake, you can sound appealing by saying, it
will almost feel like you added a hint of heaven...show more content...
Obviously the reader wont stay keyed in if you aren't, but I'm talking about making sense in a way
where the reader can relate to you. Give an example of a situation that most people go through in
everyday life. The main idea that authors need to keep with them is the power of the authors words
relays only upon the reader.
Another huge element in good writing is production. You can be interesting, you can sound great,
but if your story is just not headed anywhere the reader will eventually lose focus and move on.
Even if you have many details surrounding your story, try to focus in on the ones that play key
roles. A lot of readers talk about how something happened more then why. I like to hear the reasons
for why rather then for how because if you already know the climax of the story you really wouldn't
wanna track your steps back, though informing the reader why can actually spice things up.
The biggest factor that plays in good writing in my opinion is how much emotion the writer puts into
his or her work. Honestly, a good reader will be able to tell how much effort was put into a
writing from the first couple of sentences. If the reader gets a sense of the writing trying to force
words into a sentence or trying to stretch out a page you will lose your reader right then and there.
If you honestly believe in what you are writing and have interest in the subject matter the reader
will be able to read between the lines and actually have a feeling of being there,

Character Analysis : A Streetcar Named Desire
2016. Many works of literature contain a character who intentionally deceives others. The
character's dishonesty may be intended to help or to hurt. Such a character, for example, may
choose to mislead others for personal safety, to spare someone's feelings, or to carry out a crime.
Choose a novel or play in which a character deceives others. Then, in a well–written essay, analyze
the motives for that character's deception and discuss how the deception contributes to the meaning
of the work as a whole. In Tennessee Williams's play, A Streetcar Named Desire,Blanche DuBois's
personality is built around false pretenses in order to protect herself from facing the reality and the
consequences of her actions. However, her downfall is brought about as a result of her inability to
cope with reality after the truth about her is revealed, which contributes to the play's pessimistic
take on the worth of dreams, as well as its criticism on the inherent flaws of deception. Blanche, in
the climax of the story, lies to her brother–in–law, Stanley, saying, "Deliberate cruelty is not
forgivable. It is the one unforgivable thing in my opinion and it is the one thing of which I have
never, never been guilty" (Williams 156–157). Blanche plainly contradicts herself when she admitted
earlier to her boyfriend that a deliberate act of cruelty on her part led to the death of her first
husband. She lies about this because it distances herself from the uncouth, unrefined behaviour she so

Writing is a skill that is learned, taught and most importantly dreaded by most students. This includes
students of all ages but however if you have trouble with writing or coming up with a thesis
statement you can always use the closed–open continuum. The closed–open continuum is a structure
demonstrating different levels of determining how to propose your thesis and structure your writing.
The closed side of the continuum is top down– thesis based prose, this means that you introduce your
thesis at the beginning of the introduction. Top down–thesis based consists of your typical five

"Literary Elements of Wharton's 'Roman Fever'"
The short story, "Roman Fever" by Edith Wharton, reveals numerous popular literary elements. Some
of the most prominent examples of literary elements are irony, symbolism, and foreshadowing. All
three elements create the feel and atmosphere of the short story. They add illustration, mystery, and
humor to the storyline.
The irony in "Roman Fever" begins when the two daughters refer to their mothers as "young
things". This is verbal irony because their two mothers were described as aged and...show more

This shows that she is different from your average middle–aged woman, and that she and Grace do
not have many things in common about their personality (Petry 1).When Alida Slade and Grace
Ansley are looking at their daughters having fun in the moonlight, and Grace says "And perhaps we
didn't know much more about each other", it shows that some drama is about to occur, and that she
knew she had things that Alida did not know about her, and also that perhaps Alida felt the same
way (Selina 1).
"Roman Fever" demonstrates countless excellent cases of irony, symbolism, and foreshadowing.
Different kinds of irony make "Roman Fever" entertaining during dialogue. Symbolism gives the
story deeper meaning in small actions, for instance knitting, and setting details. Foreshadowing in
the story baffles and intrigues. In conclusion, these are the three vital literary elements in Edith
Wharton's "Roman Fever". They capture the reader from the playful beginning to the jaw dropping
end.

Well Written Essay

  • 1. Rough Draft Process Analysis When beginning to write an essay everyone has their own method of doing so. Some may like to brainstorm while others may prefer to go straight into writing about their topic. I personally beginning every essay by collecting ideas about my topic before coordinating them into a type of diagram, next I proceed to do my rough draft before revising over the paper and finally composing my final draft. The point of the writing process is to help break everything down so ideas can be organized and everything can make perfect sense for not just the writer but also the reader. Writing an essay can be difficult if a person does not know how or where to begin. I personally believe the first step of writing is to list down ideas about the topic. After...show more content... Proofreading and revising is a very crucial step in the writing process. If a person does not proofread then the essay they worked on may not make sense and may overall confuse the reader. Using correct punctuation shows how sentences are supposed to be read. Once I have made sure all my sentences are grammatically correct I then compose my final copy of the essay. Writing can be difficult if not done correctly. That is why there is a writing process to follow. Using some type of way to group ideas together help coordinate how the essay will go. Then once the ideas are put together the rough draft can be formed and edited. After everything has been writing accordantly the essay can then be turned in. Some may think the writing process is just some more additional steps to getting their essay done but overall it makes the writing experience easier and more Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 2. I have been studying and learning English for more than 11 years, and of course, I am willing to do my best to improve its. However, whatever I did, writing skill still is my biggest weakness. For me, during the writing process, thinking up the ideas for a specific topic and expressing those are a real problem. However, after finished English 905 class, my writing skill has been changed significantly. That class has offered me the ability to be aware of my personal strengths as well as weaknesses as a writer and also provided me methods to strengthen them. And now, I feel comfortable with writing compositions and expect to produce higher work. Therefore, in the hope of learning how to become a more effective writer and transform my mediocre work into a well–composed essay is the reason why I continued to register English 908 class. Obviously, the first step in the writing process is brainstorming the idea for that topic. Unlike freewriting in which I can write down my current feelings or thoughts without caring of grammar rules, punctuation, spelling, etc. Unfortunately, when having a specific topic, it takes me more time to come up with the ideas than other people. After fifteen or twenty minutes of warming up, my head is overloaded because of too much information appears at the same time and I don't know how to organize it. Then, I need to struggle against how to put that information in order and wonder should I cross some out. As a result of this, I always start my Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 3. English Reflection Paper Being able to learn what it takes to succeed in a college level class will be a great tool for me to use when I am continuing my education at a four year university. English 101 was my first college level English class and was definitely an eye opening experience. I was able to see what my professors will expect from my work, while also growing as a writer. Even though this was a life altering experience, I did have some frustrations and struggles along the way. The quick deadlines and flexible topic choices posed a problem for me. However, some of the essays assigned have turned out to be some of my favorite writings that I have ever produced. This past semester has allowed me to create an extensive writing portfolio filled with my journey of writing growth. Having class only two days a week was a new and interesting setup. The deadlines approached more quickly than expected, and I believe that is because of the unfamiliarity I had with the class setup. In my high school English classes, I was use to everyday instruction, and being able to work on my assignments during class. While writing my first paper, "Lefties: The People Who Are Still There When Things Are Not Right," I struggled the most with the deadlines. This new journey made me realize that I needed to change how I complete my assignments. More time writing at home was necessary to complete a well thought out paper that I would be proud of. To be honest, I struggled with this throughout the whole semester. Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 4. Gwen Wilde's essay "Why the Pledge of Allegiance Should Be Revised" highlights key reasons why the Pledge of Allegiance should be changed to be less divisive towards Americans who do not believe in a God. Wilde begins her essay by informing the audience of the countless alterations the pledge has gone through over the years. The earliest version of the pledge, which was published in 1892, left out the words "under God." The words "under God" were not added until 1954 when president Dwight D. Eisenhower approved the pledge we all know today. Wilde goes into detail about the hypocrisy illustrated within the Pledge of Allegiance. She explains how the words "under God" are needlessly divisive in a nation that is said to be indivisible. However, Get more content on HelpWriting.net

I knows that it going to be a challenge for me to improve everything in very short time. I will have to do my best in every assignment and works harder than others students.

  • 7. How My Writing Has Improved After this semester of English 102, at Bristol Community College I feel that I have gained the skill to articulate what I want to convey to the reader in many ways. I don't just look at grammatical error, but instead I look for ways to make my sentences more effective and concise. Nevertheless, I hope that this strategy will continue to help me improve my writing even further on in the future. My strong points as a reader have also definitely improved after reading the poems and stories we experienced this semester. Writing has been an important form of expression for me. I find myself to be very soft spoken and speaking verbally is usually difficult for me because I can't always seem to find the right words to say. I feel that I am more expressive and have more control over what I want to say. While this semester progressed toward its end, I have learned new writing skills and gradually learned how to engage with audiences. This skill was very useful in meeting my course goals in English 102. I believe that I have grown at organization and careful stream my thoughts as well. Before I would just begin writing my papers without any plans or organization, along with no definite idea of where I would be going with the assignments, but throughout this course I've learned that you should base your paper around your thesis statement. Another skill I took from this class was to value my classmate's responses, from their reactions made me much more aware that my main ideas Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 8. Cesar Chavez Rhetorical Analysis Cesar Chavez, a civil rights leader fighting for improving pay and working conditions of farmers, employs the use of nonviolence resistance in his role as a leader of the United Farm Workers. As a child, Chavez and his family worked as farmers on a field as migrant workers who were most likely treated in an unjust manner and thus, he dedicated his life to improving the conditions for all farmers. To honor Martin Luther King Jr. on the 10th anniversary of his death, Chavez wrote to a religious magazine that helps people in need about the benefits of nonviolent resistance. Throughout his letter, Chavez applies rhetorical devices such as pathos, diction, and juxtaposition to persuade and inform people about how powerful and effective nonviolence techniques can be for civil rights. Multiple times, throughout the text, Chavez uses pathos to appeal emotionally to his audience. Chavez builds a connection and empathy with the readers and persuades them to be people who fight for causes nonviolently. In the sixth paragraph Chaves states that, "men and women who are truly concerned about people are non violent by nature. These people become violent when the deep concern they have for people is frustrated and when they are faced with seemingly insurmountable odds." Chavez states that everyone who actually cares about people should be nonviolent, that they shouldn't have to resort to violence because they don't need it. This quote builds a connection and causes self–reflection for the Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 9. My Writing Experience Throughout this semester, I have personally developed and improved as a writer, through the weekly writing tasks set for the writers Journal. This procedure of composing Journal entries and assessment tasks involves critical reflection on the information provided and on myself developing those skills. During my school years, books were always as a part of my life, reading gave me joy, swept me towards my memories and took me along Journies never been before. However, I never thought of myself as a writer, composing short stories, writings and texts for others to read. I have realised that my goal is to become an influential educator to children who are yet to discover their potentials, goals and interests.

Notes lead me to all sorts of thoughts without having the necessity of remaining revolved around one theme or topic, prompting my interest in more writing opportunities. Notes can incorporate the majority of the thoughts and things that you consider, not exactly what you will use to answer the task like a journal entry would. This opportunity, I have discovered, motivates you throughout and eventually leads you on answering a claim, since you can glance back at all of your thoughts and check whether there is any connections or similitude within the written piece. Philip Pullman suggests that "writers are magpies", meaning catching information and ideas for opportunities of written work. This is reflected in my own experience of note taking for my writers Journal, adopting new discoveries and ideas into my writing Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 10. Powder by Tobias Wolff Essay Powder Powder, a short story written by Tobias Wolff, is about a boy and his father on a Christmas Eve outing. As the story unfolds, it appears to run deeper than only a story about a boy and his father on a simple adventure in the snow. It is an account of a boy and his father's relationship, or maybe the lack of one. Powder is narrated by a grown–up version of the boy. In this tale, the roles of the boy and his father emerge completely opposite than what they are supposed to be but may prove to be entirely different from the reader's first observation. The father's character begins to develop with the boy's memory of an outing to a nightclub to see the jazz legend, Thelonius Monk. This is the first sign of the father's...show more content... He likes to plan far in advance even to the point of bothering his teachers for future homework assignments and numbering his clothes on hangers so the schedule of wear is equal. It is very common for children to exhibit some controlling behavior like the boy in the story because it gives the child a small piece of control in their own life. ("Brain Psychics") This is due to the lack of control on their parents' relationship and the inability to control separation and divorce. This is quite believable and allows the reader to relate to this situation, especially if a divorced single parent or one who was a child that grew up in a divorced home. The first feeling of this story is that the boy and his father struggle with their relationship, but as it unfolds, the reader sees how they do care for each other. It also becomes easier to spot the difficulties of communicating within a brokenfamily. The father does a fine job to of turning the boy's scheduling obsessions into a positive for the boy by noting it as one of his strong points. This story also paints the picture of a father who would not give up on regaining his time with his son. It shows the father desperately trying to rectify the mistrust issues he created because he stated to the boy when they were sitting in the diner after the highway patrol redirected them away from the snow–covered route home that she would never forgive him if he did not get the boy home for Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 11. Essay on Writing Experience My Writing Experiences My experiences in writing have been minimal. I have only learned the basics of writing, like putting together sentences, forming paragraphs with sentences, and things like that. Since I have been taking college English, I can tell my writing has improved a lot. In the future, I hope to be able to improve tremendously at writing essays, paragraphs, research papers, documents, and stories so that I have very little to no errors with drafting and final products. I predict I will be a well rounded writer when I graduate from college. Writing in the past started in kindergarten.

My goals are to write papers and not have to reassure myself that maybe I need to do more research or have more data or even have to rethink my whole topic over. I would love to have the knowledge to be a tutor someday and teach other people how to properly write papers, paragraphs, essays, and maybe even books. To have excellent skills in writing will definitely be a great advantage in my nursing profession. In nursing, I will have to do lots of charting on my patients. I will have to do health presentations on various subjects such as exercising, how our society eats, and sex education if I want to be a course instructor. Researching information on all of those topics I will have to make sure I do an excellent job on and collect accurate information and statistics so that I can compare to other sources. Dictating to the doctor means that I will need to write properly so that he understands what I am saying.

  • 12. A Well-Written Essay Analysis A well–written essay is one that follows the specific structure in order to convey necessary information in relation to the writer's thesis, without being redundant. In regards to this essay, all of the information is relevant to the overall theme: the high quality of mystery books produced by Agatha Christie. This essay is very satisfying, but can be slightly adjusted to produce an even better written piece. The essay starts off with a question, "Who does not enjoy a good mystery book?" I believe that this question is not very appealing to all readers, as those who do not enjoy the mystery genre may discontinue reading the essay. The hook can be replaced with a quote, for example, to open the minds of those readers who have no yet been turned Get more content on HelpWriting.net

This class fixed my writing skills to speak and write incorrect terms. English composition gave me the edge I need to take my writing skills to next level. This class has helped me understand the importance of documentation in a research skill. English composition showed me that sources either make or break your essay. The true honesty of this course was that I am glad I took it. At first, I hate this class so much, because this class required so much extra work to be done, but over time I realized that the extra work really pushes you over the edge to make your essay great. The extra work justifies your essay and molds Get more content on HelpWriting.net

Researchers Henderson and Zimbardo argue that one explanation of the cultural difference between Japanese and Israelis lies in the way each culture deals with attributing credit for success and blame for failure. (2005, p. 20). "In Japan, an individual's performance success is credited externally to parents, grandparents, teachers and others, while failure is entirely blamed on the person. Therefore the Japanese learn not to take risks in public and rely instead on group–shared decisions." (Henderson and Zimbardo, 2005, p.22). In Israel, the situation is entirely reversed according to Henderson and Zimbardo. "Failure is externally attributed to parents, teachers, friends and other sources, while all performance success is credited to the individual's enterprise" (2005, p.22). The consequence is that Israelis are free to take risks since there is nothing to lose by trying and everything to gain.(2005). Paragraph 5 Covers 3rd environmental cause In addition to family and culture, technology may play a role as well. In the United States, the number of young people who report being shy, has risen from 40 percent to 50 percent in recent years (Payne, 2005). The rising number of shy young people may be "due in part to the growing dependence on non–human forms of communication, coming about as a result of our huge advances in technology" (Payne, 2005, p.6).

  • 15. What Makes Good Writing? Essay This for me was a very hard question to answer due to the fact that its an opinion, and there are very many types of writing. Different structures, ideas, metaphors, and concepts. You have to remember to ask, whether the writing in itself is good in my point of view or not, has to answer to my specific guidelines which in your case might not be the same. The first and foremost of the many guidelines is how the author set's up the introductory sentence or better yet, the hook. If the author for example, is writing a cook–book, his first sentence should be appealing to the sense of taste. For example, If you are writing on how to bake a chocolate cake, you can sound appealing by saying, it will almost feel like you added a hint of heaven...show more content... Obviously the reader wont stay keyed in if you aren't, but I'm talking about making sense in a way where the reader can relate to you. Give an example of a situation that most people go through in everyday life. The main idea that authors need to keep with them is the power of the authors words relays only upon the reader. Another huge element in good writing is production. You can be interesting, you can sound great, but if your story is just not headed anywhere the reader will eventually lose focus and move on. Even if you have many details surrounding your story, try to focus in on the ones that play key roles. A lot of readers talk about how something happened more then why. I like to hear the reasons for why rather then for how because if you already know the climax of the story you really wouldn't wanna track your steps back, though informing the reader why can actually spice things up. The biggest factor that plays in good writing in my opinion is how much emotion the writer puts into his or her work. Honestly, a good reader will be able to tell how much effort was put into a writing from the first couple of sentences. If the reader gets a sense of the writing trying to force words into a sentence or trying to stretch out a page you will lose your reader right then and there. If you honestly believe in what you are writing and have interest in the subject matter the reader will be able to read between the lines and actually have a feeling of being there, Get more content on HelpWriting.net

  • 17. Character Analysis : A Streetcar Named Desire 2016. Many works of literature contain a character who intentionally deceives others. The character's dishonesty may be intended to help or to hurt. Such a character, for example, may choose to mislead others for personal safety, to spare someone's feelings, or to carry out a crime. Choose a novel or play in which a character deceives others. Then, in a well–written essay, analyze the motives for that character's deception and discuss how the deception contributes to the meaning of the work as a whole. In Tennessee Williams's play, A Streetcar Named Desire,Blanche DuBois's personality is built around false pretenses in order to protect herself from facing the reality and the consequences of her actions. However, her downfall is brought about as a result of her inability to cope with reality after the truth about her is revealed, which contributes to the play's pessimistic take on the worth of dreams, as well as its criticism on the inherent flaws of deception. Blanche, in the climax of the story, lies to her brother–in–law, Stanley, saying, "Deliberate cruelty is not forgivable. It is the one unforgivable thing in my opinion and it is the one thing of which I have never, never been guilty" (Williams 156–157). Blanche plainly contradicts herself when she admitted earlier to her boyfriend that a deliberate act of cruelty on her part led to the death of her first husband. She lies about this because it distances herself from the uncouth, unrefined behaviour she so Get more content on HelpWriting.net

This includes students of all ages but however if you have trouble with writing or coming up with a thesis statement you can always use the closed–open continuum.

The closed side of the continuum is top down– thesis based prose, this means that you introduce your thesis at the beginning of the introduction. Top down–thesis based consists of your typical five paragraph essay. This also means that you will be introducing your thesis in the introduction paragraph.

Literary Elements Essays Peter Scott Ms. Wiggins Honors English 10 1st Block O3/09/11 "Literary Elements of Wharton's 'Roman Fever'" Peter Scott Scott 1 03/09/11 Ms. Wiggins 1st Block "Literary Elements of Wharton's 'Roman Fever'" The short story, "Roman Fever" by Edith Wharton, reveals numerous popular literary elements. Some of the most prominent examples of literary elements are irony, symbolism, and foreshadowing. All three elements create the feel and atmosphere of the short story. They add illustration, mystery, and humor to the storyline. The irony in "Roman Fever" begins when the two daughters refer to their mothers as "young things". This is verbal irony because their two mothers were described as aged and...show more content... This shows that she is different from your average middle–aged woman, and that she and Grace do not have many things in common about their personality (Petry 1).When Alida Slade and Grace Ansley are looking at their daughters having fun in the moonlight, and Grace says "And perhaps we didn't know much more about each other", it shows that some drama is about to occur, and that she knew she had things that Alida did not know about her, and also that perhaps Alida felt the same way (Selina 1). "Roman Fever" demonstrates countless excellent cases of irony, symbolism, and foreshadowing. Different kinds of irony make "Roman Fever" entertaining during dialogue. Symbolism gives the story deeper meaning in small actions, for instance knitting, and setting details. Foreshadowing in the story baffles and intrigues. In conclusion, these are the three vital literary elements in Edith Wharton's "Roman Fever". They capture the reader from the playful beginning to the jaw dropping
