Wr 12: Mon. Dec. 17: Editing the short story

If you were absent today, plan to stay in at lunch for two or three periods to catch up. We discussed four levels of editing. Get the notes from a friend. You will also need a handout regarding how to edit a short story. We worked in the lab for the entire period, reading, editing, and making copious notes on our partner's story. Bring the notes to class tomorrow to give to the student. We'll edit during class tomorrow and then Wednesday we will do the actual workshop. You will need to bring three copies of your story to class Wednesday but you may not workshop until you have done a handsome job of editing a peer's story.

Also, those students who have not yet read to a class, this is your final week.
Please do not read to a class that has already been read to. Find a new one.
