I have an essay that I need help completing. Here is the quote that was picked.

He turned to the man. "I am paying," he said. When my parents got divorced in 1976-ahead of the sharply inclining curve of divorces in the United States - my father hadn't paid. The judge in Minnesota had ordered him to pay one hundred dollars - an amount equivalent to almost five hundred dollars today ?but he never paid the judge's fee and he never paid child support. He returned to Colombia and it had been as if he had never existed.

Discovery Draft Directions--DelLong 20 pts. possible * write at least 1000 words * use one quote from WAMTR * use two quotes from articles found in library databases + (ite all sources using either MLA (Bedford ch. 20) or APA format (Bedford Ch. 21)choose one You may feel unprepared to start this draft, and unsure whether your research question is sturdy enough to support a draft but trust me on this one. It's time to start writing. Even free writing is better than worrying and continuing your research in @ million different directions. Put some glue on your bum and start typing. Once | begin drafting a new project then | have a sense of what | need to do next. Writing is not as linear as you might think--it's really a recursive process where you try out a thesis or research question and then experiment with using some sources and then maybe keep one source and throw out three and revise your thesis a bit. Later you will figure out who your target audience is and what you really want to say to them. Then you'll need to find better sources and do a lot more research. But first you have to figure out what you really think. The only way to do that is to write. Start working on this using Word Online so you can check the page count, use the double-spacing there, and save the file in your OneDrive and on your laptop. Be sure to save your files in two places at all times. Technology fails when it can sense your anxiety, (Use the information on the list of IT tools for students in the Course Basics folder if you don't know how to find Word Online or OneDrive.) 1. Type your research guestion or position statement on the top of your draft. 2. Type in a quote from WAMTR and include an in-text citation in MLA ar APA style. 3. Write about the idea in the quote: what it means to you, why it matters, and how this information is important to your argument. It's ockay if you go off- topic, just write at least a page. 4. Then type a quote from one of your articles from a database, add the in- text citation, and write another page. 5. Then type a quote from a second article from a database, add the in-text citation, and write another page. 6. Do you have 1000 words yet? If not, go back and add a few more paragraphs talking about the connections between the quotes or at the end a longer speculation on why this issue matters to you or why you are uniguely qualified to talk abaout it. Use only three sources for this four-page draft. Skip the introduction. You should write that at the very end of your project. When you're done: 1. Upload the Waord file to the Assignment folder. 2. Then post the text from the Word file in the Peer review one Discussion on D2L. This is the file that one of your classmates will read and peer edit next week
