"Write about your critical analysis and thought process for this paper."
I like Poe's writing, so I decided to write about one of my favourites. I sat down, read the book a few times, then opened my computer to Word. Two thoughts flashed through my mind: vampirism, and "wow, the house and Usher are exactly the same". I started writing for the second idea because it would definitely fill four pages and the paper practically wrote itself. The end.
D:
I do not put much thought into most papers. The things just write themselves. Some are better than others. I've proved to myself that when I try to think things through and plan and organize when writing papers, it crashes and burns and then I get frustrated and the papers are no good. But somehow, but sitting down and thinking about something else, papers are written and most get very good scores.
(Proof? Three papers in history last semester. Wailed, cried blood and tears, studied, thought, organized for the first two. Was sick of it by the third one and just wrote that one without thinking. Scores, if I'm remembering right: 8/12, 7/12, and then 11/12.)
Too bad I can't do something like that for these "reflect on what you did to write this paper" papers.
