Chapter 4


How did this chapter help you write your first draft?

It helped me think of ideas for my lead paragraph because I always get stuck, and now I think I may be able to start it well.  It gave examples and I tried to apply them to my subject.  Also, it helped me when it said to write about facts you know.  For my paper I will know a lot of background information since I know a lot about my disciplinary already.  I will be able to put in personal experience and beliefs effectively because of my past knowledge.

What is one writing tip/strategy that you won’t use from this chapter?

One tip I won’t use is starting my paper with an anecdote. I am planning on using a quotation or two to begin it, which was also one of the suggestions.
