Essays
What should an essay be? An essay should be useful. Useful writing makes claims that are as strong as they can be made without becoming false. Useful writing tells people something true and important that they didn't already know, and tells them as unequivocally as possible. Novelty, correctness, importance, and strength determines usefulness.
