Hi Everyone,

Thanks for a good discussion today. Here is the Keats Imitation Exercise that is due on Thursday. We’ll be discussing and reading from your poems on Thursday so make sure to bring them! For those who were not in class today you can find the Keats poem and the Amy Tan reading here. Make sure to read, take notes on, and be prepared to discuss the Amy Tan essay as well. Ask yourself: can I write something like this? How would I go about writing an essay like this? What advice can I take from the essay about how to tell a story about myself?

Finally, click here for a link to our first writing assignment. I’ll bring hard copies on Thursday and we’ll discuss the assignment/brainstorm ideas for it in class too. Take a look now and start coming up with possible ideas for your essay. See you on Thursday.
