They Say I Say-Chapter 6 and 7
In the book, “They Say I Say,” these chapters, six and seven, do fabulous jobs making you understand why it is important to put objections in your text and why you should always say why what your writing or presenting is important. In chapter six, they start out by giving an example of a writer who almost forgot to put in an objection, but when she did it made her writing a million times stronger. They say that when you put in objections to your writing you are enhancing your credibility and I would think you also make the readers believe more of what you say. Also, you should not only just put in an objection, but make it the best argument you can. Yes, I know it’s against your topic, but if you have the right comeback it can boost your credibility that much more. In chapter seven, they start out by stating the obvious, when giving a presentation you should ALWAYS say why the audience should care or why what you’re saying matters, or else the audience won’t care and won’t think about it. Chapter seven reiterates that you shouldn’t just say who cares, but so what? These are two totally different things and if you forget one, it could hurt your presentation, but if you get them both in there good, it can make it a whole lot better.
