The Thesis as Lens

What stood out to me the most in the chapter was the reciprocal relationship between thesis and evidence. The chapter argues that the thesis should be like lens because the thesis should effect how the writer sees the evidence. But at the same time, the evidence should also require the writer to readjust the lens. i thought about my own writing process. A lot of times I try to come up with a thesis before finding the evidence. Instead of doing one before the other, you must come up with your thesis while finding the supportive evidence. that is the most effective way to make your argument both clear and effective.
