[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with reading a lot. I went to a mediocre public high school and never had extra help with writing. I just read QUALITY books - like real classics, not Harry Potter and Goosebumps - starting early. Also publications like the Economist. You absolutely pick up the rhythm of good writing just by reading it. Also, the basic 5-paragraph essay structure is so easy and a good basis for later papers. It's so simple and so many bad writers ignore it. Topic sentence, supporting sentences, concluding sentence.[/quote] Agree with everything in this post.[/quote]
