Impromptu Paragraph Writing

Write a fully and specifically developed paragraph on the following topic.
Include sufficient analysis and details to make your response convincing to a reader.
Save time to proofread and genuinely revise and edit the paragraph. Also use the format for writing paragraphs that you have learned before (name and page numbering in a header, personal and course information on the left, double spacing, Times New Roman, 12-pt. font, etc.).

Assume that your house or your dormitory is about to be consumed in a wildfire such as the ones that are currently ravaging Southern California. Assume further that you were told you had to evacuate. What would you most want to take with you and why? If you can write a full, specific paragraph (at least half a page double spaced) on one object, then concentrate on that. If you do not have enough to write about one object, then discuss two or three. In any case, develop the paragraph thoroughly. Convince your reader of the value of what you would most want to save from the approaching fire.
