Writing 12

Great to see you today. Welcome back. We read the Stephen Dobyns' story, "So I Guess You Know What I Told Him". Friday, we'll be using some of Dobyns' ideas to do a writing activity that will work into a new story.
We'll be looking at the concept of "status" between characters.

Your edited stories from term 2 are due Friday. I'm really looking forward to reading these.
Be sure to double space them, have a title, and follow the criteria for literary short stories. Look at the criteria sheet. The copy should be clean. Catch typos.

Friday: Bring a character to class. You will need a name, age, and occupation for this fictitious character. High school student or university student can be an occupation for this exercise.
