Interesting Personal Essay Topics
Interesting Personal Essay TopicsPersonal essays are of two types: the intro and the extro. Intro is the part of the essay that contains a short introduction or synopsis of your life story. It is often compared to the introduction of a book. It is the place where you let the reader know that you are writing the essay, and as such it should be interesting and compelling.Now that you know that the intro of your personal essay is the first part, it's time to think about how to make your personal essay interesting. That's because the intro is a good place to begin to establish a strong personality. If the intro is interesting, then it will be a lot easier to write a great essay that describes what you've accomplished in your life.However, most people find that the intro of their personal essay to be one of the hardest parts of writing. That's because their own personality and personal experience with their life are too well known. And so when they need to give an introduction to their li fe story, they don't know how to make their intro interesting.The problem with giving an intro to your personal essay is that you aren't actually speaking about yourself; you're speaking from a limited point of view. You are speaking from a position of strength. The benefit of writing from a personal position is that it makes you appear to be an expert in your subject matter.So how do you go about finding interesting personal essay topics? A great place to start is with the topic of your life, your career, your love interests, etc. You might also want to think about some of the challenges that you have overcome in your life and write about those.Next, try to be as honest as possible when you're writing your intro. Don't try to tell a story. Keep your 'story' to three to five sentences, so that the readers have a chance to get to know you before they decide if they are interested in reading your whole essay.Your overall theme should be about your life. Make sure you use descriptive l anguage as you speak about your successes, and use direct language as you describe your failures. This way, the reader knows that you are writing for him/her, and not just for yourself.One final tip is to make sure you use directness. Try to make a point in the first paragraph, and end with a bang. The subject of the essay should always have some sort of a conclusion.
