I wrote an essay on presidential persuasion and felt pretty good about how I did. I feel my usage of conjunctive adverbs is really solid and adds to the flow of the essay. One spot I used it in was comparing Trump's and Obama's styles, saying,"Trump’s loaded words and fear factor did really well for a portion of people; in contrast, Obama connected more personally with the people and appealed to a larger audience" I need a little more work on coming up with good hooks, but after a lot of rethinking I came up with,"Presidents persuade people in many different ways, and some ways are more effective than others" I went back after typing out the essay and made a lot of improvements on what I had previously written. I was writing in both past and present tense without realizing it, and went back to fix it afterwards.
