3. Brainstorm and come up with a few topics for your rant. Again, you will be complaining about something, but you’ll be writing in a more formal tone, so your topic of complaint needs to be something minor. Don’t rant about poverty because that’s actually a major issue worth getting worked up about. Rant about pencils getting dull or people who use speakerphone in public places.
