The strategy that I chose was number 5, “to restructure your essay and discover new ideas in the process.” and strategy no. 1: “To Say Something Better.” I really struggle to dive in and dig deep to give analysis and context. I feel like expanding more will greatly benefit my writing and paper. Also I find that I tend to be repetitive with my analysis and claim and do not really introduce new ideas. I am trying to focus on that and the overall organization of my paper. Having everything organized and structured so it can flow nicely and be fluid. I just need to work on analysis in which I can explain the evidence and quotes that I use and how it both benefits and supports or proves the claims made in the paper. Isolating a single topic and attempting to develop it as far as possible could be a useful method for me to clear my mind and understand how the idea will fit into the larger essay. Strategy number 1 allowed me to go deeper into a topic and provide more examples. I was able to strengthen my point by building on it further. I believe I chose strategy number 1 because it made it much easier for me to organize and clarify my thoughts.
