Willie Said:

I have a question about essay writing but using my own quotes?

We Answered:

It can't hurt. I would make it slightly more clear by saying, <I said to myself.>

If you said,

I thought that it would be another obstacle.

I would not use quotation makes.

I cannot stretch the meaning of cliche to describe what you are proposing.

How can I improve my Essay writing to get an A from B+?

We Answered:

make sure your information is full of details and supporting evidence, but make it compressed and succinct- don't ramble on. also make sure your sentences are made up of a variety of different words, try not to repeat any too much. make sure to get your point across as well, and make it clearly stated and restated throughout the essay.

Does anyone have tips for writing an essay on art and culture?

We Answered:

Your problem here is that you're trying to do too much. You have three or four ideas here, each of which would make a solid little essay--all together, however, they're too much. Over-fill the bottle and you'll pop its cork!

Freud and surrealism, if you're interested, has been done to death. It would therefore be easy to research :-)

Heidegger would be of most interest to this humanities prof, judging from face value.

All you need, IMO, is focus! Don't try to do too much. OK?
