Why Write School Papers?

For the sake of your career, do not decide "to sell on the Internet." Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad idea. Just consider the equation: academic dishonesty + exposure (even belated) = ruined reputation and probable repudiated degree(s).

Clear enough?

Good. Now, the only reason anyone should write a paper is for himself. Most often, students write them for classes. A teacher might also write an example for his own use to show his students.

In fact, if the teacher is introducing a style of paper alien to the students, like a discourse paper, I can say from the students' end that an example paper would be a whole lot more helpful than hodgepodged feedback that may or may not help the student realize the problem(s) with his paper style. And it would lessen the amount of time the teacher spent addressing the same issues to each student.

Students will—or, at least, should—still be essentially all who write papers. Okay, so you really couldn't care less about the influence of the National Assembly on the French Revolution, because you don't care whatsoever. But you want to pass your class, right?

It's safe to say that you even want a good grade in your class, though you may not be aware that you want that. Good grades pave your way through school; sometimes even help you get jobs. And they help lower car insurance.

So even if you have no desire to write that paper, you want to write it. If only for light at the end of the school years.

P.S. As a bit of a hint… Try to find something to like about the topic. You'll write a lot better.
