IMPORTANT NOTICE: Since I will not be able to begin grading the Revised Essay 1/2=> you may have until Thursday to turn them in (even though it is posted as due on the blog for Tuesday.) In class we will talk briefly about the writing about writing essays in your anthology, and then you will work on the essay of your choice or on the rhetorical analysis project.

Conferences. You spent the rest of class talking over your "eye" essays so far - and thinking about which one to revise. I posted a sign-up sheet for conferences. This conference is a place to talk about revising the "eye" essay - and to begin thinking about which essay is your "best" => the one that you will submit for publication. The rhetorical analysis project will help you identify your audience - and the right place(s) to send your work.
You each should have received an email invitation (to your kean email for everyone but Amanda who received an invite at her gmail account) to the google.doc sign-up sheet. If you can't find the document or edit (sign your name next to a time) let me know and we will figure it out.
For next class:.
Blog 18: Post Revised Essay 1 or 2
I will be reading Blogs 13-16 and providing comments over the weekend. If you want to do some more tinkering with Essay 4 - go for it and we will use what ever you have posted at the time for your conference.
Have a great weekend!
