Junior Theme Post Four: AHH!!!

Sorry for the delay in posts!

My interview with Professor Vaughn went really well- he was very helpful and knowledgeable, and he gave me some great info for my paper.

However, the paper... is due THIS FRIDAY.

I currently have five pages, although I would like seven, and my intro, conclusion, and general organization need serious work. I'm currently having a battle: Do I arrange my paper thematically or chronologically?

I rearranged my paper to be thematic this weekend, but in my opinion, it makes a lot less sense that way. A friend of mine read my draft just for comprehension purposes and asked me why the dates were jumping all over the place. I tried to arrange it by religion, censorship, and economic themes, but the three are so interrelated on this topic that it just sounds dissorganized.

Also, I can just feel that it's not my best writing, which makes me nervous. And i'm not sure if I am fulfilling the assignment either, because i'm not sure how well I am anwering the why.

Thankfully though, I have all of the required sources and a surplus, which is good, but I just need to make the paper more analytical and more cohesive. 

How are you all doing?
