Collecting and presenting textual evidence in support of an argument is an important skill. Let’s say you’ve been tasked with writing a literary analysis essay on the function of external and internal conflict in The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle.

In about 150 words, formulate an argument and collect at least three specific examples from the text and explain why each is relevant to the paper’s thematic topic of external and internal conflict. Your argument doesn’t have to be too precise or perfect. Just come up with enough of an idea so you have something to “hang” your evidence on.
