Paper...problems...
OK. So, I have written half of my paper and I realize that I am having trouble elaborating. I am queen of bull crap but when it comes to this I have hit a wall. I don't want to bull crap necessarily I want to have good points but I want them to be polished and complete thoughts. I just cant seem to meet the length and I find myself rambling. I don't like repeating things, its boring and predictable. I also have some trouble with conclusions...I like to present a thought that will make you think about the paper further but often think that its not always appropriate. One because it introduces and new thought and two that it kind of leaves you hanging. Is this good or bad? To introduce a new thought at the end of a paper... I may be helpless considering your not looking at what I have written so far but your comments on elaboration and conclusions would always be helpful...

For elaborating and making your paper longer maybe you should try using more examples or quotations from the stories. As for conclusions, I am having problems with that as well! Good luck!!

Maybe you could reword your paper so that the new ideas show up near the beginning, and you can elaborate in the following paragraphs. Anyway, with new ideas, I'm sure you'll meet the 4 page minimum in no time!
In my conclusions, I try to use a (simply common) clever thought or quote to sum it all up with. That way, they won't forget about your paper. It will make an impact, because any time they hear that quote, they will remember your paper.
