Cathy Altman Nocquet's engaging manual leads you to explore your creative and critical thinking to elicit an authentic essay no one else could write. Structured like one-on-one workshops with exercises to get ideas flowing, it offers tips, insights and editing techniques to keep you on track. Uncover a fresh topic and develop a distinct voice as you craft a compelling, strategic essay that's 100% your own. "Brilliant!
