Thanks for the advice, guys! My Thesis statement will be "I was an ordinary man whose greatest talent came from the desire to try what nobody else has attempted, without being tied down to the expectations of the time." Kind of a weird thesis,I know, but this is what I think of Su Shi, so that is what I will try to argue. Try and read my paper with this in mind. :)

I suggest that you add in titles to separate information like this.

Title

but you don't have to


but overall it looks great, also make sure you use in text citations in addition to your list of refrences at the bottom and i would sugest instead of writting (source Edgar pg. 34) just have (Edgar pg. 34) you don't need to say source but it is really up to you.

Comment 2

I think you should make the poems clearer, as in "cleaner"? Like right now it seems to blend in with the rest of the text, I think it should be more distinctive. Thanks, --Checksum 04:53, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

Proof Read! :)

1- You need to be sure to put a space before your source otherwise the parentheses are connected to the last word of the section you are citing.

2- Spelling and grammar errors are easier to spot after you take a break. I'm pretty sure you will spot what I'm talking about right away if you go to your paper now and try reading it out loud.

3- And, how about an argument? This is a nice autobiography, but, well, we were asked to defend something. Of course, it looks like you aren't finished yet- maybe the argument is still to come- right? Dekeo 06:44, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
