A) Please choose one reading from either Thursday's quiz materials or tonight's on the "Nature Self."
B) Some of you are comfortable with this creative writing already, as evidenced in your quizzes, emails, texts, & essays; however, everyone else will have to practice, now! Choose a first line from
http://thefirstline.com/ (you can also use the Spring 2015 they already published-removed on main part: Fairy tales hardly ever come true for quiet girls.)
C)This must be the first line of your short, creative work; you must practice creating a piece of literature to analyze [alongside the work of your choice]. This should be similar to your midterm essay & expectations for your final. Have fun.
D) Limit yourself to no more than 6-10 sentences for your story & then analyze how it was possibly influenced by the "Nature Self" piece you selected, in no more than 4-5 sentences.
Due Sunday March 29th [6 pm], along with a comment to a fellow student.
Remember, the "Worker Self" quiz/material is Thursday March 26th, so now our blogs will be in weird, over-lapping weeks. You will not be blogging upon that material until next week(end) though.
"Naturalism aimed at giving the primitive wishes full play but failed because these wishes are too primitive, too infantile, too inconsistent with themselves to be satisfied even by the greatest license." --John Desmond Bernal
