Tuesday / Wednesday 27/28 September

The opening writing prompt was: "A Date" Dates can be good  or bad. First or last. Blind or not blind.

Writers received a handout on Point of View. We discussed the differences between 1st, 2nd, and 3rd person points of view. We discussed objective; omniscient, and limited omniscient points of view.

Writers chose a passage and revised it to a different point of view.

Writers were assigned to color code a piece of their writing in order to analyze their use of the elements of narrative.

Writers were reminded about two up coming deadlines.
October 11th / 12th First Short story due.
October 28th/ 31st Short Story: "Morbid Fiction" due.

Writers had time to work on creating characters, back writing, and revising in order to work towards completion of their first story of the year.
