Throughout the novel (Long Way Down by Jason Reynolds), Will uses figurative language (simile, metaphor) to describe things or f

eelings. For example, when he holds Shawn’s gun for the first time, he notes that it is, “Heavier than/I expected/like holding/a newborn.” In this example, the juxtaposition of the image of a newborn baby with the weight of the gun highlights the deadliness of the gun and loss of Will’s innocence. Find an example of figurative language that you think is especially effective and explain why it is significant.

Answer:

hey! thanks for the question.

from planning to drafting, i'd suggest doing research and knowing what you're going to talk about. organize it properly, maybe by cause and effect, or a timeline, ect. make sure the order makes sense and flows correctly.

revising is usually more like fixing the rough draft, and organizing it so it goes smoothly. editting is the final draft, in which you make it sound better.

taking a break is important because you need to get evidence, and read examples, which you can do while resting your fingers from writing.

make sure to rephrase this when answering :)
