Tuesday, February 26th

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 think a reasonable due date for version 2 would be Friday.
We already (or are supposed to) have version one finished. And people will give us some help today. And then we have a few days to do it and such. Just my opinion.

friday would work-- perhaps even thursday since we're behind... we could then get more feedback in case we get the chance to work on it over the weekend.

I think friday sounds good. After getting peer reviews and all that a few days of more personal reviewing would be cool.

friday would work well. we already have the 1st draft so we should be able to have it ready in 3 days

I guess Friday would work, although it would be nice to be able to work on it during the weekend, so maybe monday? I don't know.
