Hello, Writers!
Today:
1. Post your "A Time My World Changed" poem. At the end of the posting, ask two (or more) questions of your peer reviewers.
2. Here is the list of blogger partners. You picked one (or maybe didn't--then A.J. and John picked for you) and I put you with another pair. Check it out:
A. Kelly & Cassie; Dezi & Desmond
B. Nick & Courtney; Casey & Pang
C. Jacqui & Gwyneth; Jessi & Leyen
D. Kelsey & Ali; Tina & Jasmyn
D. Liz & Annelise; Katie F. & Martina
E. Callie & J.T.; Melissa & Shon
F. Meng & Shola; Katie Andreen & Matt
G. Geoff & Jordan & Nancy
H. Katie E & Massa & Ruth
Your blogger partners are important in that you are responsible for giving them feedback FIRST. You are encouraged to read others' writing, but you are required to read the writing produced by your blogger partners.
3. So today, leave a message for each of your blogger partners. Greet them. Describe how excited you are to be partners with them. Love them. And answer the questions they have posed for you.
4. Finish your Tortured Love Cliche/Non-cliche poems. Post them if you like.
5. Work on any re-writes you'd like.
6. Post here when you think a reasonable V. 2 due date is. Remember: we're behind. I will come around and check off V. 1 but there is no need to give me a hard copy. You'll revise with peer comments and give me V.2 hard copy.
7. If you want to start thinking ahead, our next poem will be "What I Needed to Say."

I hope your 3 day weekend was very...Presidential.
Today:
1. Work on your final play. Hard copy due in my hand tomorrow. 50 points possible. (I'll take it early if you've got it).
2. Post your play (there are a number of stragglers--don't be one of them). Read, comment positively at this juncture.
3. Start working on "A Time My World Changed."
4. If you have done everything, then use this time to freewrite. Brainstorm. Puke that soul out, baby.

Welcome, writers. Here's the skinny today:
1. Post your play on your blog.
2. Hand in the hard copy to me.
3. Pick a partner: this person will be your "blog partner." Post your names here.
4. Try to get around to each person's blog and read their play. Leave a SPECIFIC, POSITIVE comment. Ex: "Your dialogue sounds realistic, especially the section between Bernice and Claudio." NOT "Cute! LOL!"
5. If you get done, our first poem assignment will be "A time my world changed." You can get started on that if you wish.
