Writing 12 Thursday, Sept. 30

Thank you for submitting such fabulous poems. I'm so impressed and this is only week 3!!! Wow.

Imagine the quality of your manuscripts by the end of October. You will make money with these poems and change the world and not necessarily in that order, right?

Today, we focused on using our imagination by developing extended metaphors. Try imitating the samples.
See if you can go over some previously-edited poems and add more extended metaphors. They really work and they are fun to write.

Next week, we have two writers coming to class, one from Iceland and one from Ireland--Monday and Tuesday. You will not want to miss these classes BUT if you have to, remember, you must make up the time by attending an extra literary event outside of school.

If you have already attended an event, please submit your response forms, asap.

Thanks.
