Question: Need desperate help coming up with a good topic sentence!?
I am struggling to come up with a good topic sentence!. Here is what the topic calls for: "What is the biggest change you have experienced in the last two years!?" And actually I've had several!. I've met my husband, married him, had a child with him (who's now a year old), and moved to Kansas!. I went from being a single mother to married with a complete family in two years!. Can someone PLEASE help me I'm desperate to come up with a GOOD topic sentence!. Here's what I have so far: "The biggest change that I have experienced in the last two years is my relationship status!." I really think there's something better though, any help would be greatly appreciated!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

It sounds to me like your problem isn't coming up with a topic sentence so much as choosing what, specifically, the biggest change is!. Transistioning from single to married life!? Having a child!? Relocating!?

Given your sample sentence, I'm going to guess that you're thinking that the transition from single to married life is the biggest change!. So the topic sentence should focus on that!.

Maybe something like "Of the many changes I've experienced in the last two years, the transition from single to married life has been the most profound!." Or something!.

Unless you mean to include having a child in that discussion, in which case your topic sentence might be better written as something like "Of the many changes I've experienced in the last two years, the transition from living single to becoming a wife and mother has been the most profound!." Or anything along those lines!.

Hope that helps!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It'd be a stab in the dark, but here goes:

"Considering the several more recent changes my life has undergone, one in particular has had the most impact; I married my life love!."

I hope that sounds ok!. Good luck! :)Www@QuestionHome@Com
