They Say I say

After reading the first few pages of the book, They Say I Say it amazes me how bad of a writer I actually am. Last week I had to write an essay for my primary source analysis to state whether I agree with the documents my professor gave me. After handing in my final work, I confidently walked away believing I would receive at least an A. It wasn't until I read the introduction of They Say I Say, that I noticed I made quite big mistakes in my essay. Like the author had wrote, I didn't give a clear reason which side I took. I was too focused on being indecisive that I did not make a straightforward point. I dragged my paragraphs for too long and misdirected my entire essay. I will continue reading this book, hoping that I can improve immensely on my rugged writings.
