This process paper should be 1250 words long (double spaced). Your prompt is below:
“You have been asked by a professional social media site to develop instructional content for their readers on a topic of your choice. The publisher has let you know that you are targeting adults between the ages of 18-22 with your essay.
For this publication, you will need to create a directive or informative (or hybrid) process essay where you are explaining to your audience of 18-22 year-olds how to do something.
Requirements:
____ You need to completely walk reader’s through a topic/explanation of your choice
____ You need to settle on a tense (present-tense, future-tense) and maintain it the whole way through the essay
____ You need to vary your sentence construction and not repeat the same sentence formulation over and over. This will allow your essay to be more engaging to your reader.
____ Your essay needs to convey an orderly process
____ Your process essay should have an interesting, engaging, introduction and conclusion. You should NOT start your introduction with a question.
____ The highest scoring essays will inject their writerly “voice” into this process-paper, just like Lamott, Frahm, and Mitford (see textbook)
