1. Read the following article as a confidence-builder: https://wrd.as.uky.edu/sites/default/files/1-Shitty%20First%20Drafts.pdf
2. Draft five pages of your paper – any parts in APA format (Times Roman 12-font). The paper MUST be written in the Third Person voice, active sentences and no subjective adjectives.Draft using complete sentences and paragraphs, adding lists, etc. to parts of your outline. Now is the time to have a running header, etc.
As you draft this material, carefully document quotations, paraphrases, and summaries using appropriate in-text citations. Do NOT plan to wait to add these later – you will only complicate your task and get my antennae up for potential problems with plagiarism.
3. In order to provide a context for this material, include in the file with your first five pages, your current outline for the full paper, with thesis statement at its top. Include this as part of your file of five draft pages. YOU MUST KEEP YOUR WORKING THESIS AND YOUR OUTLINE ON ALL DRAFTS!!!
