it isn't the best way to start essays. it's totally unnecessary and irritating to read. instead of saying 'i will x', you should just do x.

I just write in the style that I see others write in the books I admire.
I'm not too skilled in all of the various parts of speech and how they relate to one another when composing a sentence, but I don't think a person really needs to be as long as they are well read and have a style that suits them and is grammatically correct.
Whether it be the wiser to write like this
Or
Whether it's wiser to write like this is irrelevant as long as it does not cramp the flow of your writing and is readily understood by your target audience.
Did I use any participles? If I did, I am not aware of it, nor do I care.
