How do I start my essay?
I want to write an essay a lot, but I don't know where to start or what the topic should do. I want to know how to make it from the basics.

think of what interests you and choose 1 of them, then start writing down points, then pick one to lead you, then make an outline using that point and others, then start writing, and then you're done
Definitely pick a topic that you love or know a lot about. At first explain why you chose the topic that you did, and then proceed to delve a bit further into the topic itself in later paragraphs. And of course, be sure to have the paragraphs flow smoothly into the following ones for as much clarity as possible; end one with one idea, and open the next with another idea that goes along with the previous.
