"How to Write" - Colson Whitehead
What is Rule No. 8?
Essay 2:
Revision Plan. Focus on how exactly you would like to transform your paper.
- Focus first on the big goal and what you want your audience to get from the reading - clear specific perspective, day-in-the-life, the crazy awesome shocking aspect that outsiders don't know, something else...
- What is the big picture? How can this be bigger that one person? How can something learned or gained by the person be applied to a larger context? Basically, why is this important?
- Why will an audience who doesn't know you want to care and keep reading? What can they gain from this story?
- How will you draw your reader in and keep them engaged?
Looking Forward:
