When you have decided upon your subject and method of treatment, there are two courses open
to you . If you have a fertile brain, a reasonnably logical mind, and a well-developed sense
proportion, you may write your essay straight off, each idea suggesting to you a related
idea, and the whole shaping itself spontaneously into essay form.
This method, where it is possible, produces the freshest and best shaped essay, since the
complete composition, "grows", like something organic, instead of being laboriously
constructed--built up brick by brick. It is the ideal at which you should aim.
If, however, your mind is apt to fly off at a tangent or cease to provide you with ideas, so
that you must rack your brains to discover what next to write, you should "plan" your essay
before writing it. But this plan is intended only as a guide. When you come to write essay,
you must, if necessary,modify it.
