It easily produces a sequence which does not already exist in any
countable seqeunce of sequences since it can be made to differ in at
least one place with each sequence, the place depending on the listed
position of that sequence.

But your essays are all of finite length but each is a string of words
taken from an infinite dictionary, which is not at all the same thing.
Even so any infinite essay will differ from a of you essays, so you
analogy fails.
