A cause and effect essay assignment can be challenging. Your job as a writer is to show the relationships between events (how one causes another), but relationships between events are not always straightforward! They can be subtle and/or complex. You will need to demonstrate a number of logical and factual relationships in this type of essay, so you will need to set off with a scientific approach.
Alas, sometimes we have to go with logic when we choose a topic, instead of following our hearts!
You can start off by making a chart to compare several topic ideas. Brainstorm to come up with a causal chain for each possible topic. Try this with a few possible topics to see which one demonstrates a the most straightforward chain of events.
When choosing an essay topic, you may have to compromise a bit. We can't always write about topics that intrigue us. Sometimes we have to choose topics that are easiest to articulate.
