     I am currently reading The Beginning of Everything by Robyn Schneider. I am only on the 4th chapter but I am enjoying the book so far. I just finished Fire by Kristin Cashore which was a reread.

     Sadly i am working on my first essay for my English 100 class. All we have done so far are paragraphs so this is a little harder for me. I have already finished the introduction and now i am on my 3rd paragraph. the only thing i am worried about is having enough words and my conclusion, so somehow i have to make this last paragraph and the conclusion long enough to make over 900 words which so far doesn't look good right now because the process that i am using for this paper is kind of short. I wish i had chosen a long recipe. I hope to finish this paper tonight so i can read all afternoon and hopefully finish

I have already finished the introduction and now i am on my ..."I learned the hard way that English teachers care less about the content and more about the structure. Keep in mind that they are focused on getting to the next paper. Any grammar problems causes them to stop reading and correct. It is a bonus to have an interesting paper, but a really crappy content paper with good grammar and sentence structure still gets an A. Why? They did not have to stop reading! The faster they move on to the next, the better the grade. So forget about looking for great content, and focus on the mechanics. Content is the vehicle, but the goal is the destination. A crappy car and a good car both get you there, but the trick is doing it without tickets. With that said, there are subjects that require research, or there are no words to write. It is simply where the time is best spent to get the best review. I hope this helps...the advice is general for English teachers, not so much for this particular paper. Ken

I finished it a few days ago actually :) I really liked it - my only complaint is that the ending left a lot to be desired and seemed sort of rushed. I might reread the end though because I was pretty exhausted when I read it the first time so none of it really made sense to me at the time.
