Three Body Paragraphs

Improved Essays
Plagued with countless random thoughts constantly popping in your head it can be challenging so sit down and write something worth a second read. However many writers have formed some sort of ritual to aid the paper they are writing. One of the rituals that distanced itself from the rest would have to be taking a steamy scorching hot shower minutes prior to writing anything. My skin tingles just thinking about how hot the shower is and how much stress is relived.
Equally important is the stress factor of a big paper or even your first paper of the semester. It can definitely take its toll on the paper and the overall grade in the class so you have to prepare properly or it can end up being a bad situation. Plan out your three body paragraphs

As soon as the ink of the pen hits the paper or fingertips typing away on a keyboard you can feel the world of difference the shower just made. With your skin still red hot from the shower the ideas are flowing like the Nile River into your head minus the crocodiles. Now surprised by all the new ideas and thoughts you have to channel it on to the paper in an interesting way for the reader or the format your professor asks for. It can at times feel like you can not write fast enough or type fast enough because of all these golden ideas crystalizing in your brain. Thank goodness for spell check too because when a good idea is being written down quick it is more likely to be spelled wrong because your just trying to get it down before its gone.
In conclusion, the writing process has many steps and many rituals that can be practiced before writing a paper. Hot showers work the best in my opinion but everyone is different and what works for your brother can actually hurt your writing process. Do whatever works to get the best possible grade you can get on your paper. The way I am wired is that my brain is convinced that steamy showers relieve stress and reduce anxiety but people are wired different. Moral of the story is do anything and everything you think will benefit you in the long

    Writing is an art; we create our thoughts in your mind and express it on paper. Once we start writing we keep getting new ideas and when we re-read what we wrote, sometimes it might surprise us. I like to write during early mornings or in the evening when it is quiet. My reading table is facing towards the window so when fresh air is in my room, fresh ideas generate inside me as well. I make sure to have some healthy snacks and a bottle of water in front me…

    When i first entered this course i expected it to be as hard as a college class. What i did find out was that it was much more streamlined and functioned as a class on how to manage your time and deal with big projects. I was really efficient in writing and being creative in my papers but not so much when it came to research papers. We mostly wrote research papers in this class so instead of using my strength in creativity i mostly had to do research and be genuinely interested in the topic i chose. I was used to taking online english classes where i had a lot of time to complete assignments so i felt very independent.…

    Over the course of this semester I learned a handful of things about myself as a writer, that will help me develop as a more proficient writer over the course of my four years here. As a writer one of my strengths is backing up my argument with solid and concrete evidence that truly makes the reader believe what they are reading. Another area of my writing that I excel in is being able to process great ideas that follow the guidelines and the prompt. With that being said I have also seen that while the ideas may come with ease, I do have a challenging time with getting the ideas from my head onto paper in a manner that isn’t so disorganized that it makes the reader second guess themselves. Another shaky part of my writing comes much before the actual forming of sentences.…
