The Power of Three

Pamela Tracy here and my favorite number is three.

See, I'm an English teacher, and every semester I teach thesis statements and, well, you just have to have three topics.

So, today, our blog is going to be write your own thesis statement.

There's only one rule (besides making your sentence complete and punctuation savvy) and that's it has to be about today's writing journey.

Here's the formula I teach in class

Term = Class + Distinguishing Characteristics

My term:  Pamela Tracy
My class:  A Harlequin Heartwarming author
My distinguishing characteristics (must be three): will respond to emails from writer friends asking questions, will write the reader letter and dedicationg to send to Kathryn, and will revamp the first six pages of the new proposal.

Here's my thesis.

Pamela Tracy, a Harlequin Heartwarming author, will respond to emails from writer friends asking questions, will write the reader letter and dedicationg to send to Kathryn, and will revamp the first six pages of the new proposal.

Note my use of parallelism using the verb "will".

Pamela Tracy's next Heartwarming

"will" be available April 2019

  6. Liz Flaherty, who writes stories from the heart, will submit her requested proposal as soon as she finishes it...and I gave up on the rest of this because it was alarming how long I sat here and tried to come up with something that made sense. Is it okay if I just borrow everyone else's?
