Thursday, September 27

English: Nonfiction personal narrative, draft 1.
             Content
     
This is a true story about something that once happened to you. Use your topic generator to
                     help you come up with an experience worth preserving. Remember that I am grading
                    your writing, not your experience. The most important experiences often make the worst
                    topics. Avoid "bed-to-bed" diary entries that encompass an entire day. Try to relate an
                    experience that occurred over 5 or 10 minutes of real time.
            Start with something moving in the first sentence. This will keep you from writing an
                    introduction. Spill your ideas on the paper. Organization, elaboration and fluency will
                    follow. Right now get your ideas on paper.
                      
Appearance
           This is handwritten in pencil on single sides of white-lined paper. Paperclip when done to
                  enable you to later spread the entire paper out in front of you. Remember to put the
                  proper heading in the upper right and to label it, "Draft 1."

               Audience

           The audience is you, the writer. This is often called the "sloppy copy." Spelling doesn't count!
           
          
We will edit this paper in class on Friday. Draft 2 will be done on computer
                     next week.
