I decided to start with the section that discusses the “ideal woman” because I feel like I know the most about that topic. I feel like it’s also the main purpose of my paper, and while the other two topics are important, I feel like this is what I really want to discuss the most in my paper. I think it would be easier to talk about the main part of my paper, then write the other two sections that can connect to the part that I’m writing about. Something else I was working on was going through my sources for this section. I looked them over and created a separate document of sections that I would like to use in my paper. This helps me narrow down what I should start talking about or at least something I can focus on working towards.
The hardest part is trying to figure out where to start. There’s so much that I want to talk about and so many options on where I can go. It’s also hard deciding what I should be adding from each source and how much I should add from the source versus how much I should be saying. I did try to narrow it down by going through my sources and finding pieces that I really want to talk about, but it’s still hard to narrow down what I can include and what I can’t.
I think the next section I want to write about is the genre. This should be easier for me to write because I also have some understanding of this topic. These two sections are also supposed to be my longest sections of the paper, so after I finish these two topics, the majority of my paper should be out of the way.
