Writing your story

  Introducing your topic of writing in an interesting way. You can tell your own story or part of a story, begin with a short hook like Shelly Reid did “Writing is hard” to begin her own article, do discuss the different aspects of writing, especially college writing. Introducing yourself and how this writing is related to you Including a catchy, unique hook (first one or two sentences to attract the reader) to your introduction Including a thesis at the end of your introduction that informs your reader what kind of writer you are and perhaps how/when/why you are this writer. A thesis can also include your “plan” for the essay as we discussed in class.
