As a writer, your first priority is to make sure that you are keeping your audience in mind and writing for them and to them. That means grabbing and keeping their attention so that they want to read every word. This is exactly why the essay hook exists and is such an important tool. An essay hook is the first one or two sentences of your essay. It serves as an introduction and works to grab the readerâs attention. The first couple sentences will help your reader decide whether they want to continue reading your essay or not. The use of hooks in writing goes far beyond just essays and college papers.
