Writing 12

If you were away today, google this story: Bullet in the Brain by Tobias Wolff. Print out the story and as you read and re-read it, notice how the author maintains and sustains tension. Also explain why the ending works so well.

I collected the two strangers stories today. Tuesday, we'll do the kissing pages for the chapbook so bring lipstick. We'll also go over the criteria list and deadline for you fiction manuscripts and we'll start looking at postcard stories, sometimes called flash fiction.

We will also need to prepare for the chapbook launch, June 4. Who have you invited so far?
