Write to Persuade
Bridge Builder
You built a bridge for a reader who started on the far bank. You spanned the river with a claim, you set pillars of reasons under it, you put a footing of proof beneath each one, and you left a signpost telling the reader what to do. It held a doubter's weight, and that is the real test of an argument. Certified, and into your collection it goes.
