Well, your topic depends on what kind of writing assignment  you were given. I'll assume that it is either an explaining or a persuasive.\nSOME IDEAS IN THE EXPLAINING \nyour dream in life\nwhat you want \nyour desires\nAmerican history\nthe revolutionary war\nany other war\nsomething passionate to you\nhow any country became a country\nart styles\nthe crusades\nany other event that occurred in history for any country\n\nPERSUASIVE TOPICS\nshould violent video games be published\nwas the decision of the Japanese camps in WWII just\nis being poor when you are a child a bad thing\nhow old should you really be to drive\n\n\n\n\nthe topics you could choose are infinite so, you still have countless options for your topic

First, I would research on the topic in general.  Then, I would narrow down my research to specific aspects I would like to discuss.  I would gather all my resources on the material and study it. Then, I would make a topic outline, sentence outline, put bullet points of things I want to stress and finally, when my outline is complete, I would start writing it.  Then I would edit and proofread what I wrote.  Make sure the footnotes are in order and properly formatted.  Then make the index, appendix and table of contents.  Dedication comes last.

First of all, u need to know exactly what ur gonna write about, set the exact content and organization for it. Start by a catchy intro, a question, anecdote, quotation and so on. Write the intro from general to specific and only mention the exact topic of urs in the last sentence after having talked about the history or such. For every body paragraph, try to do ur best in unfiying the topic about it and metnion it generally in the 1st sentence. Write a good conclusion by giving a suggestion, recommendation, advice or even summarize what u have mentioned in the body par. \nThru doing this u have to take PERFECT care of ur grammar and ur choice of Vocabulary.\nEvery par should not beless than 6 sentences MINIMUM to be of a decent content.

Write about something that interests you.  It's a lot easier to do research on something that you like.  Especially for a thesis that takes so much time to complete.

The best tip I ever got about writing anything was to divide it (be it a report, a story, an essay etc.,) into three parts.  1.  The beginning.  2.   The Middle.  3. The End.   It is surprising how many people get them mixed up.\n\nSimple example:  Once upon a time.....she lived in a castle...a prince took her away......they lived happily ever after.       \n\nNever failed for me at School.

I still rely on one single thing to help me write the best possible essay I can . . . an outline. See, the problem with most essays is that the content is disorganized. You may have great ideas and facts that you want to write about, but somewhere during the writing process you start mixing them up. Suddenly your perfect paper sounds all wrong and you want to scream! I've found that the best papers I've ever written (meaning my A papers) have all started with a good, solid outline. Once you have an outline down, your paper writes itself. Your thoughts are organized and the teacher can understand your main point (which is your thesis) and how you supported that point. A focused paper is the key to writing a good essay. Here's the format for the outline I usually follow:\n\nI. Topic / Title\n\nII. Introduction of Essay\nA. Write a few sentences that lead into the main point of your essay\nB. End the paragraph with your thesis statement (3 main points you are going to support)\n     1. First point in thesis\n     2. Second point in thesis\n     3. Third point in thesis\n\nIII. Body of Essay\nA. Topic One - First Point in Thesis\n     1. Support your point with either quotations or solid evidence\n     2. Have at least five sentences\nB. Topic Two - Second Point in Thesis\n     1. Support your point with either quotations or solid evidence\n     2. Have at least five sentences\nC. Topic Three - Third Point in Thesis\n     1. Support your point with either quotations or solid evidence\n     2. Have at least five sentences\n\nIV. Conclusion\nA. Write a few sentences summarizing your essay\nB. Restate your thesis and how you proved your point\n\nOnce you fill in the blanks to this outline with your topic and information, the rest is easy! Make sure to check your spelling and punctuation, and then you're good to go!

OK.  Think first.  If you were "teaching" what would tell the student is the answer.  Be clear.  Be simple.  Then that is what you write down.  Remem ber, what you write has to make sense TO THE STUDENT, so what you write now has to be what the teacher wants cuz it makes sense to the teacher.

Usually you need to do research first. Go to the library, read articles online, and talk to people who know something about the subject. Next go to the subject yourself, observe and interview. Now you're ready to write. Start with a sentence that will make people want to read more (i.e. If Sally Jones had only done this she could have saved herself). The following paragraphs will detail what happened and the last paragraph will sum it all up.

first have an introductory paragraph, saying  in three short easy sentences examples of what your paper is about. Just give a brief overview. Then separte the other four paragraphs into four very important things in the person's life. If their birth is not very important, only make it part of the first paragraphs. Include very little about unecessary ideas. Like if it's Bill gates, no need to focus a lot in on his childhood, because his most important years happened when he was older. Then once you have your events divided, begin to write!

When I was at school we were told to "write about stuff we know about" but thats boring and shite really because what do you know about anything when youre at school?\n\nOne thing you should know a little about is moving house, as an example of a "moving to another place" essay.\n\nEasy, now you've got an idea of the subject, the next bit is atually writing it, and I cant help you there....

It would help to know a topic.  Do you have to write on something specific, or anything you like?  Give us more details.  keep in mind that when writing an editorial, you are giving your opinion and you may be surprised/hurt when you get a negative response.

Don't ask us! Just put a writing utensil (or not . . . ) to the page and get working!\n\nIf you ask us, it won't be a creation of yours, and you'll have missed the point of the activity.

Pick a topic that really interests you and is mentioned in the press but not constantly.  I would not pick the war in Iraq, for example.  Maybe I would write about U.N. policy towards Palestine or Yugoslavia instead, or the Somalian situation.  Research thoroughly and get quotes.  Get statistics and real life stories.  Develop a set of themes and general summary.  Then outline each paragraph with a main point and shape the sentences around that point.  Do not avoid descriptive, metaphorical language and sound political, emotional and yet scientifically accurate.\n\nI cannot stress enough how important it is to know your topic matter and to pick something you are interested in and learn from.  Years ago, I had to write an article on Pakistan and hated it.  It wasn't an interesting country at all and information on events there are inaccurate and underreported.  I had no say in the matter.  We had an impromptu 'U.N. conference' skit and day dedication in history class.
