Answer 1

What kind of essay you write??

Answer 2

If you start it with a question...Most people want to keep listening to find the answer.

Answer 3

its based on the story far far away from the view of a ghost who watches over a kid

Answer 4

Well, a good hook captures the readers attention. It makes them want to read more and more of your essay/speech. So can you find (a) good sentence(s) that will make the reader want to read more of your essay/speech? :)

Answer 10

My name is jacob grimm. i am a ghost that has yet to pass on from this world. i was a scholar many years ago and i with my brother wrote many fairy tales and acquitted them with a sheen of excitement and pizzazz added by the two of us. we also were to make a dictionary but both my brother and imy self had passed away we had only it to almost the end of the letter D. sad but true

Answer 11

my goal is to make a first sentence or two that will attract attention and creat a desire to read the rest of the paragraph till i can show something else that will hook them in

Answer 12

Well, my go-to for attention catching is to start it with a question or two, you also can't forget your thesis statement. If you start it with a question it will urge the readers to continue, becuase they will want to find the answer and possibly your opinion.

Answer 13

What is the story of a dead man walking. is it for better or worse? I find my self asking this question in an attempt to decide what kind of after life or death i will lead.

Answer 14

any input?

Answer 15

Hmm... Okay. That is a good one, but, that sounds like an closing to a story. You could put that at the end. IF you were to start the story off with a question it would be something like 'Have you ever______? Or maybe you can say 'Imagine this' then tell the story.

Answer 16

i like option number two haha thanks
