- Put today's date at the top (Nov 30 or Dec 1)
- Rewrite into you post:
- The controversial topic and side I support is _________________. As a result, I am going to write about a place where the opposite is happening, which includes: _________________________.
- Example: The controversial topic I selected was how we shouldn't be forced to give kids vaccinations. As a result, I am going to write about a place where the opposite is happening, which includes: every kid gets a series of vaccinations, it rules their daily life and has serious health implications.
