Five "User Friendly" Points from The Curious Researcher

1. Encouraging writing in the first person.
2. You can get personal in an essay without relying on the first person.
3. Broad introductions are not the only option. Focus on being compelling!
4. Try a variety of different leads before you settle on one.
5. Don’t get so caught up on the introduction. You’re not going to write the perfect one the first time you sit down.
