Step 1 Write a paper.
In a two-page (500-word) paper, construct a comparison and contrast essay that incorporates one of the following guidelines:

Compare a book you’ve read to the movie adaptation (such as Lord of the Rings, A.I., or The Color Purple).
Compare two different kinds of cancer. 
Compare parenting styles.
Choose your own topic. The topic should be approved by your instructor.

Consider what your topic has to offer your reader. Why should this comparison be interesting and/or relevant to your audience?
