  • Make sure you supply sufficient textual evidence to support your ideas. In each body paragraph of your essay, strive to provide 2 to 3 direct quotations to indicate a close reading of the literature. This does not mean padding your essays with lengthy quotations. Choose quotations wisely, integrate them correctly, and analyze them in your discussion.
  • Rememberand we cant stress this enoughthe essay is not merely a series of plot summaries. Rather, we are more interested in what you have to say about the literature and any comparisons or contrasts you can make.
