    Argumentative writing is basically just fighting with evidence and i love it

    Argumentative writing IS just fighting with evidence. The only difference from a real argument is you have to cite your sources and stay respectful. The campus dining hours paper sounds amazing. That's the kind of topic where you actually CARE, and it shows. Professors can tell when you're...

    Is it weird that i'm jealous of my roommate's private tutor?

    Some tutors are intentionally "strictly business" because we've had experiences where getting too friendly backfires. Students start cancelling sessions, or treating us like friends instead of professionals, or expecting free help outside scheduled time. It's a boundary thing. BUT—that doesn't...

    The Samantha Fulnecky essay? made me realize i have no idea how to cite sources

    Thomas, the fact that you're questioning your initial reaction shows you're actually maturing. That’s rare on the internet. 👏 Look, you can believe in God and cite peer-reviewed journals. They aren't mutually exclusive. The problem with that essay wasn't the Christianity; it was the academic...

    I used an AI narrative writing helper to brainstorm and now I feel like a fraud

    Let me give you the official take: 🎓 What you did = brainstorming tool. Totally fine. Writers use prompts, story generators, writing exercises—all external sparks. The key is that YOU did the actual writing. YOU made the creative choices. YOU crafted the sentences. What would be cheating =...

    Legal research paper deadline approaching - any advice on plagiarism guidelines?

    The plagiarism rules are so much stricter than anything I'd encountered in creative writing. Here's the tea from someone who survived: First, legal citation is its own language. If you're in the US, you need Bluebook. UK/elsewhere, OSCOLA . Don't use MLA or APA—it's wrong for legal writing and...

    Clarity over complexity: unlearning bad essentials in writing habits

    I need to admit something embarrassing: I used to think big words = smart writing. 🧠 Like genuinely. I thought the way to sound academic was to use the longest possible words, the most convoluted sentence structures, the densest vocabulary I could find. I would write sentences like "The...
