T/TR For Tuesday..

Hello all,

Today we had a lovely discussion about "A Good Man is Hard to Find." We discussed the various elements in the story and the audience for the story. We also briefly touched on the importance of establishing an audience as a writer. Chris G. presented a very "deep" interpretation of the story, and the profundity of his statement really helped to shape the conversation of the class.

We watched the newsreel from 1934, and then discussed how elements of that culture popped up in the story. We linked this to the memoir/narratives we will be writing, as there will be elements of our culture that pop up in the texts.

We started drafting Project One Text.

For Tuesday:

Read-Vogler-Archetypes- 23-47 (For Tuesday) If you want to read ahead, read "Indian Camp" for Thursday.

Write-Annotation for Vogler for class on Tuesday.

Do-Draft your project one text. Save it as a google.doc and then make sure to invite me to the text by next Thursday. There is a helpful overview of the drafting guidelines on engrade.com (the green heading titled "Project One Initial Draft").

Take care, and have a great weekend.

Prof. Kat
