I always seem to struggle with finding enough information to write a 1500 word close reading essay, and it feels like I stretch my ideas so thin that my essay quality becomes poor. While only referencing a small section from a prose, how do people have so much to write about in their close reading essays? For example, do people exhaust the 5 Ws and one H, talk about the context of the story and connect it at the end, etc? (I know StackExchange does not want a question where an entire book could be written about it, so I am asking for the very basic techniques.)
