An essay should never lose consistency on its subject and assertion. Each part of the essay should engage the reader, both at a macro and micro level. Each paragraph should exhibit the argument or thesis of the essay while actively supporting the paragraph’s topic sentence. It is important that all parts of each paragraph are functional.<ref>Carroll, Brian. Writing for Digital Media. New York: Routledge, 2010. 108. Print. </ref> As the writer of the essay, you need to continuously ask yourself how your paragraph relates to its topic sentence and how it maintains and develops the essay’s thesis. When one paragraph's main idea is completed, then you are ready to move on to another. Never lose track of your goals. Only use details that develop and support the topic sentence and thesis; do not digress. | An essay should never lose consistency on its subject and assertion.
