Great Advice from Sean! :)
Here are some good steps for essay writing;
1. Write a powerful first sentence that will capture your readers attention.
2. At the end of the first paragraph, write your thesis statement.
3. Fill your body paragraphs with evidence to support your statement.
4. Write a conclusion paragraph which reflects on the thesis statement.
5. Conclude with a final thought that considers perhaps the implications of the thesis statement.
Maybe you should include a dictionary definition for the word "special".
Have fun with it!
