Writing Center

My trip to the writing center was pretty typical. I got some corrections and suggestions on my literary analysis as well as some helpful tips and ideas for future writing assignments. During my trip to the writing center my helper gave me pretty much the same corrections and suggestions that Dr. D provided. They suggested that I provide more connections of my quotes to my thesis. They also suggested that I have a more "original" conclusion where I summarize my points in a different way then I did in my thesis.
My experience to the writing center helped me establish a better since and purpose of writing. And how different papers and different forms of writing have different purposes. Also that when writing to  inform the reader on a topic you should include a thesis that introduces your topic briefly and generally.  And in your body paragraphs you should explain each topic specifically that was introduced in your thesis. And the conclusion that restates all of the main points of each body paragraph as well as conclude the purpose of you entire paper.
