1 Stephen King, creator of such stories as Carrie and Pet Sematary, stated that the Edgar Allan Poe stories he reads as a child gave him the inspiration and instruction he needed to become the writer that he is. 2 Poe, as does Stephen king, fills the reader’s imagination with the images that he wishes the reader to see, hear, and feel. (The introductory Paragraph includes a paraphrase off something said by a famous person in order o get the reader’s attention. The second sentence leads up to the thesis statement which is the third sentence.)

3 His use of vivid, concrete visual imagery to present both static and dynamic settings and to describe people is part of his technique.(Sentence 3 presents topic of the paper to the reader and provide a mini outline. The topic is Poe’s use of visual imagery. The mini-outline tells the reader that this paper will present Poe’s use of imagery in three places in his writing.1) description of static setting 2) description of dynamic setting 3) description of a person. 5 ”theTell- Tale Heart”, a careful reader can observe Poe’s skillful manipulation of the sentence.
