The first lesson in the article gave me a junior high flashback. We were supposed to organize our paragraphs into the form:
Introductory Sentence
Concrete detail
Commentary
Commentary
Concrete detail
Commentary
Commentary
Concrete detail
Commentary
Commentary
Concluding sentence
—- next paragraph
It works, but writing that way was such a toil. Sometimes there is no value in 2 sentences of commentary and sometimes more explanation is needed. Sometimes it’s best to present three details all at once, instead of one by one. My teacher lifted the requirement on me after I ignored the rule but still wrote a quality essay.
