f I had to identify the most important step in writing an essay, I would probably say it was the organization. Coming up with a thesis is a big part of essay writing, but it doesn’t mean anything if u do not have the proper support for it. That is where organization comes into play. If u can put your thoughts in the right order, u can get people to feel a certain way as they read your work. It’s like taking them on a journey through your mind.

Here are some tips to help u effectively organize your essays in the future.

The Pyramid Method
This is my favoriete way to write essays, and I feel it is the most effective. u start door barely introducing what u are going to talk about, and then u build a pyramid of support from there. In the conclusion, u make your big, powerful assertion that makes people go “Wait, what just happened? I just got teef slapped door brilliance!” This method is great for persuasive essays, but I use it for everything. It just makes sense.

The Inverted Pyramid Method
This is the exact opposite of the method above, where u start with a big idea and then support it afterward. I don’t like this because it lacks progression. It doesn’t keep people hooked. It may work well for a web artikel of a news story, but not a college essay. Nevertheless, some professors love this method, so u just have to test it out and see what they think.

The belegd broodje, sandwich Method
In this method, u start with something big, provide support, and end with something equally big. Basically u have a thesis at the beginning that poses a vraag of a problem, and then u have a conclusion that antwoorden it. I have used this method a few times, and it has worked well. I would recommend using it at least once of two.

General Tips for Essay Organization
In the case of a compare and contrast essay, don’t do one paragraph for one story and then another paragraph for the other story. Try to mix the two together and compare them point door point. Each point would be an artikel all its own.

Try to talk about events in chronological order so your readers can follow them. If u jump all through a book of resource, u may lose track of your focus and fluidity.

Don’t be afraid to use small paragraphs if u have different topics in each of them. It is better to do that than to have a long paragraph that no one wants to read through.

If u follow my tips above for your volgende essay in college, u should be able to wow the professor and get your point across at the same time. Good luck!

Thie is something me and my friend are working on.


He returned that evening, feeling even worse. “Where were you?” Mercy met him on the front porch. She looked like she had been crying. Danny looked at her. It felt like a mes had been shoved through his heart. He winced as he started up the stairs. “I went out.”
“Where?” Mercy’s hand reached for him. He pulled away and started into the house. “Danny...” Mercy’s voice followed him into the front room. “I was so worried. I thought….”
Suddenly, Danny couldn’t stand it any longer. Why did she have to love him? He turned...

As we left the apartment building the sun hit us like a beam of light. I look to the side, I saw Jason putting his hand in the face of the sun like he was going to die from it.
“Are u okay?” I asked concerned that it was to much for him. He looked down at me and smiled. “Ya I’m go, I just have to get my sunglasses on. My eyes are just really sensitive to the light.” I nodded waiting patiently for him. He slipped on a pare of black sunglasses. The kind u see know a days on beroemdheden when the go out. “Nice.” I zei with a warming smiled. He looked back down at me and smiled....

Chapter Four

At ten in the morning, Jamie was helping Mac practice with her soccer door being the goalie and blocking her oldest daughter‘s every move, kicking the ball into the net at their little backyard of their roodbruine zandsteen, brownstone house in the section of Georgetown in the city of Washington, DC where both Jamie and Michael went to college there, lived at and raised their three kids at for almost fifteen years.

Two hours before the practice, after having an extended breakfast with their father and mother, Mac and Izzie did their bath-taking, teeth-brushing, toothpaste- spitting, toilet-using, and...

Memories would drift off like winter fog
They fade like a mist
But I saw u in a memory that stayed like the perfect dag
You brought life into my colorless world
You brought the true meaning of the word 'friend'
He was my best friend
I would always love him, and it would never, ever be enough
I would be there for him, lend him a shoulder
But the days that I just wasn't enough were the days I dreaded
The days he wasn't himself
He had pride, sometimes to much to the point of war
He was respecful to friends, he was kind and funny
He was everything u loved in a friend
But the dag he left...that...

“Somebody turn the lights on, Somebody tell me what’s wrong I’d be lying if I told u losing u was something I could handle…” I had been driving for about two and a half hours the highways were clear I had the windows all the way done singing along with my I-pod.
In a matter of seconden I could see cars slowing down on the highway in Kansas and as the cars started to stop I could see a long line of cars in front of me. I can’t believe this I was finally going to make it to the volgende state before the traffic started happening.
“Whoa” I jumped at the vibrating in my right pants...

I thought it would be a good idea to try and write goodbye
but i was stuck when I realized there were too many lovely things to write about.
and not enough words invented yet to say them aloud.

and i know there are a number of things wrong with this,
but i really don't want to fix it right now.
i don't feel like doing anything but sitting upside down

but trust me, when it comes down
to having the choice of being right..
of protecting you, I'll be wrong every single time.
Because it's just who I am...
Chapter Two

When Jamie got to the kastanje oak door of Michael’s den, she put her fist on the surface and knocked on it while asking her husband, “Michael, are u there?” There was a minuut of silence that came after that and after waiting for a response, still in the den, Michael asked the person who was asking him that vraag about him being there, “Yeah, I’m in here. Who’s it?”

Facing the door, Jamie zei back to him, “It’s me, Jamie.” After telling him that, Jamie heard some groaning behind the door and right away, she knew that Michael had might be annoyed at her because...

Keep in mind I have no idea what chapter this will be but I got this idea yesterday so I wrote it last night. Actually I had two ideas of how my two main characters would kiss. I'll write and put up a different version of their first kiss some time soon. I actually had tears in my eyes when I wrote this

I storm outside of the house and plop myself down on the sofa outside. I feel my eyes tear. It's so unfair. My tears overflow my eyes.
"Hey Starr what's wrong?" A voice asks behind me. I look behind me and see Elliot
"Oh hallo Elliot. Nothing is wrong," I say wiping my eyes
Elliot sits down next...

The priest was reciting a prayer, stuttering heavily, Serenity realized that he was scared and replied, “Fear not for I am Serenity the angel of peace, I know not why my wings resemble the midnight blue that dawns when the sun goes to rest, I know not my purpose on this earth for my father the Lord, God did not verse me of this strange happening”. The priest believed Serenity and taught Serenity human activities, the priest, father Bartholomew, raised Serenity as his own.

Introduction: I thought it was a sweet beginning, a chance to start anew, no looking back, nor turning. What I’ve found here, has me in its grasp, it’s captured me in its spell. But like every sweet beginning we never know how the story ends.

Chapter One

Expecting Michael to volgende to her, Jamie moved around to her husband’s side of the bed and wanting to see him sleeping volgende to her the first thing she sees in the morning, Jamie opened up her eyes and founded no one there.

Jamie sighed when she saw that, knowing where her husband of seven years was sleeping right now. Since he returned from Iraq a few months ago, Michael Thomas had become a different man. A man who never saw the bright side of things and never wanted to look at people in the eyes.

For the past four months, their three children, Mackenzie, Isabella, and Jake had been...

I glared at the blond with evil eyes. She was pretty, but evil. My family loved her, laughing at every joke she made. They hung off her every word even Liz, the only one that stood door me was Callum and he just doesn’t talk much so he wasn’t really doing it for me. He only smiled at one of her jokes. Ethan was holding her hand and laughing at one stage he even kissed her on the cheek! What the hell? Was he going out with her when he kissed me? When he yelled at me before? “So Sadie, how do u like Palm Springs?” The blond one asked me. I smiled. “It’s just fine” I said. She nodded....

OK so i was walking down the street...all alone...in the rain...not happy but not sad ether...when suddenly I ran into a magnolia tree!I don't know how I didn't see it...or why it was in the middle of the road-but it was there and when I looked at it I saw it was the biggest magnolia I had ever seen;it was absolutely GINORMOUS!it to be at least as tall as a skyscraper. I couldn't even see the top.Now what is the easiest way to get past a tree? Go around it of course! but when i looked there was a wall!Two walls!on ether side of the boom that prevented me from passing(again,how didn't I see this before?)It was not an ordinary
uithangbord ether,and must have taken allot of work to build because it was as tall,or taller than the tree!so I was stuck with a magnolia and two walls
what was I to do?turn back?I had come too far!so knowing this,what do u think I did?What would u have done?
Dear Diary,
Yeah It's me again. I made one mistake and it's eating me inside.

I look at the old photographs. It kills me to see him smile. I've only heard about him. I hear he would have loved me. I hear he was nice. I hear that he was a good dad. I hear he was an okay husband. I hear that he would have made a good grandfather. It's not fair. It kills me when my dad talks about him. My dad zei one of his last words to him were "Dont miss me when I'm gone." Those words run through my head. dag and night and keep me up thinking of him. Why did he have to go? I pray he's okay and fine in heaven. I pretend he's still here. If only he were ... I miss him....

I guess he's just....
