When doing the research for a research paper it is helpful to find someone who is already and expert on your topic. You need someone who has already done what you’re doing to help guide you where to go on your paper. You need a guide like the old man Gandalf from The Lord of The Rings. Someone has already researched most topics that you will choose to write about. When you find someone that is an expert on your topic you should read the things they have written. You should try to find someone whose area of focus is the same as yours. When you do find this person you should then began to look at where they get their information from and use it to guide your paper. A good way to find your expert or old man’s information is to look at the works they have written and look at the works they cited and referenced in their works. When you find your old man you should try to read what they read. You can look at things they have written, look at their web pages, or even look at their Twitter accounts. Finding an old man is a great way to also get a number of sources for your paper. When you find your old man you have a good large source for your paper, but you also have a number of other sources that support your ideas. Finding an old man is a great way to collect sources for your paper and give you direction when writing it.
