The supporting paragraphs (paragraphs 2, 3, and 4) should focus on three specific points about the author's narrative. Use the prompt questions as your guide but do not let the essay read as if you are just answering the questions.

Point of View: Limited first person point of view. You can use me/my/we/our/us or he/she/it/they pronouns freely. You 'cannot' use the "I" or the "you/your" pronouns in this assignment.

Remember that you are the narrator so the "I" pronouns are implied-you do not need them.

Instead of, "I think Blomberg used ethos effectively."

Go with, "Blomberg used ethos effectively."
