This is a response to a "Quick Write"
Which essay did you prefer?
My personal favorite essay is "In the Trenches". The reason for this is the fact that it uses descriptive language and words to not only tell a story, but teach something as well. "I bury my face in the cool damp earth." It is with this storytelling aspect that the author transports us first person into the action, educating us about the war. "In the Trenches" is as throughly entertaining as it is an educational read.
I feel the same way. The more descriptive the wording is the more I want to continue reading. Just like the quote you used "I bury my face in the cool damp earth," it is so clear that it is like I was right beside the guy and seen everything that happened to him.
