The Topic:J&B worked with the client on a 1,200-word essay for the Ayn Rand Essay Contest addressing Topic 2 for Anthem: “Do you think that Equality 7-2521 is selfish?” The Process:J&B worked in a two-person team and split the project into seven main steps. At the start of the project, J&B engaged in a pre-consulting session with the client to discuss which topics they were interested in writing about. As the client was torn between Topics 1 and 2, J&B shared relevant readings related to both topics to help the client better assess their interests. Once the client decided on Topic 2, J&B prepared a 5-page outline which the client used to prepare their first draft. The team then edited the client’s draft and returned it to them with guidance and suggestions for their second draft. The client responded to J&B’s revisions in their second draft, which J&B polished to meet their high-quality standards. Writing Style:The client is a philosophical thinker with a strong interest in Ayn Rand’s rhetoric. Throughout the project, J&B worked with the client to organize their thoughts and claims, maintain a cohesive framework for their essay, and clarify their thesis. The team also helped the client cut down their word count, working on making concise statements and paraphrasing direct quotes. At the end of the project, both J&B and the client were satisfied with their final draft. J&B’s Key Goals:Precise statements Clarity Philosophy and logic Structure
