First Day of Class and what to do for Wednesday

We got off to a good start - you've all got a blog set up and are working on putting in the links to classmates blogs (I've got a start on that and will finish up tomorrow). I suggest that you edit the blog titles so that they all list the owner's name.

The readings for Wednesday (as listed on the calendar) will set you up with some "evidence" for the writers of those pieces think creative nonfiction is - and after reading their essays do some more thinking about what CNF is and how it works (how it connects to readers) finish your first post.

Be sure to read about keeping a writing journal and to bring a writing journal to class. In class - we will talk a little about how you want to use your journals, and then you are going to get started with some writing to generate material for your essays.

If you have questions or concerns - of if the technology is feeling intimidating - send me an email and we will work things out. I am looking forward to reading your work!
