Your presentations this evening were well done - and useful. Each of you should have several possibilities for places to send your writing. As many of your observed, these venues are looking for work with the features you have been working on this semester. So give it a try!
Come to class next week prepared to practice the material you will read at our end of year reading/party. I have reserved East Campus, Room 203, from 4:00 to 8:00. We will set up, mill around, and eat food beginning at 4, and the reading will begin at 4:45. Plan on reading for about 10 minutes. You do not need to read a piece that you wrote for this class, but I am hoping you will read creative nonfiction. If you are going to read one of your very short pieces, maybe read two or more. We will create a sign up sheet next week.
We will continue to work on the refreshment list. So far we have commitments for the following.
Tobey: cookies
Kristi: Spinach Dip & Veggies
Kristen: Dessert
Robert: Soda
Angelica: Plastic plates & Chips
Maria: Plastic Cups & Napkins
Alessia: Dessert (cookies) and Iced tea
Sally: something hearty
During your rehearsal, work on your introduction and your timing.
After rehearsal, we will use the rest of the class to work on setting up the portfolio + drafting the reflective writing on the opening page.
For next week:
Blog 14: Final/revised short essay
