Read The Right to Fail by William Zinsser and answer the following question. Then “submit” your work.
Originally written in 1970, Zinsser’s essay includes some examples that may not be familiar to you. Write an essay that supports and updates Zinsser’s position by drawing on more current examples from history, literature, sports, current events, or popular culture. Imagine a specific audience for your essay (perhaps a sibling, a friend, or a high school class). Be sure your examples will have an impact on those readers.
