    1. I would like to focus on stylistic aspects of writing. For example, we are reading Life of PI which is more creative and imaginitive than the Re-reading America articles which are concise and less descriptive. In an MLA style research essay, when if at all, is it appropriate to use creativity to generate interest? Or does it even matter?

    2. Glossing tips
    3. Introductions

    1. I would like to work on how to prepare outlines for essays.
    2. And how to write a developed thesis statement to give a focus for the essay.

    1.) Outlines! They are very helpful, especially for research papers, but I have trouble compiling one that stays consistent with the thesis.
    2.)Poetry/Creative Writing

    I would like to focus on my thesis and how to develop my body paragraphs throughout the essay. Also I would like to work more deeply on research questions because I being noticing that my topic are not specific, & can't find enough information.
