Important Person Paper

One event that shows why they were so pivotal in your life.

In this paper, you will write a personal narrative on an important person in your life. 
Make your story vivid.   Use all 5 senses—sight, sound, taste, smell, and touch.
Use definition. Show what an important person is and is not, and show that this person has that. 
Use cause and effect.  Show some cause or problem that this person helped you have an effect on. 

Have a vivid setting.  Make sure this narrative has a specific place and focuses on one event over a short period of time in vivid place. Example: The whole essay takes place at your home.  What kind of house is it—Victorian or Ranch? What kind of furniture is there?

Give your important person an identity. Who are they? What do they look like? Are they tall? Do they have long, brown hair? Or do they have a beard?
Be the main character. You are the most vital character in this essay.  The important person should only serve a small role by helping you in a jam.  You should be the most active participant in the story’s main action.  What makes the person important is how they made a difference to you in this event?
Specifics and details. Be specific and detailed. Using proper nouns, dates, street names, etc.  Use prepositions to show locations of where things are.
Stay focused.  This person needs to be an important part of your life.  Use one event that shows why they were so pivotal to you and focus on that.  Focus on the one event that shows why this person was so important to you.

Conclusion.  Show how this event has changed you for the better.  Have you tried to pay this forward or done anything similar for someone?  Why is everything different after this event where this important person intervened?
