    Introduction

    It’s late at night; you’re staring at your blank computer screen, and your essay is due soon . . .

    It’s worth a big chunk of your grade, but you’re not sure exactly what your instructor wants . . .

    You’ve done some reading and have some ideas about what to say, but you have no idea how to get it all organized . . .

    If only you had started getting serious about this sooner . . .

    Does any of this sound familiar?

    It’s okay; it’s not your fault. Believe it or not, most people experience writing dread and find writing hard to do—including the pros who write for a living! Everyone procrastinates too, even when we know it’s not the best approach to take.

    It’s probably also the case that no one has ever really taught you how to write an essay; it’s just one of those skills you’re supposed to have picked up along the way, right?

    Do not fear: this guide will not only get you through the essay you have due right now, but will also provide a system that you can refer to again and again in the future. Here’s what you’ll learn:

    5. How to quickly edit your essay
