Essay tutorial – Notes

Great work to date, wordcount almost at 3500. The book seems to naturally support the essay. Could they be merged somehow. Is there a place for a separate theoretical piece? Maybe a conclusion or summary which somehow brings in the research. Footnotes work well. Headings are not necessary, but a sentence may work as a heading. It could be that images would provide the punctuation needed between each subject change. Structure is a conversation, a dialogue with no clear beginning, middle and end. This may need jigging. Its good in terms of ‘offering up’ thinking rather than weighing down.

Other writers/artists who have made work which successfully combines academic theory with conversational writing:
