FYI: "How to Write a Good Thesis Statment"

Here's the link to the article I mentioned last week on how to write a good thesis statement:

While you're at Student Hack, you might poke around and see what other good advice they have on writing. I remember one article where they speak about using process to write a "good" term paper in a single day. While I would never advise my students to get in the habit of trying to write a good paper at the last moment, students will, sooner or later, find themselves in this bind; and, the article I mention gives some good advice.

Thank you HDP Steve. This site offers good advice on thesis statements and reiterates something that Robbie said in his blog about Happiness, "my life philosophy follows the Law of Attraction. it's a scientific law, just like gravity, which says- what you think, and feel- you attract." So being able to get excited about anything is bound to be beneficial to you whether it is your thesis statement or your music or whatever.
