The Art of Workshop: Due Wednesday, February 18th

Part 1:
Please bring to class 2 copies of an original piece of writing that you would like feedback on. We will go through the basic structure of the writer's workshop using my own story as an example.

Part 2:
Please read the short story, Before The Wind
You are responsible for:

1.Looking at the overall story, its’ characters, the dialogue, the themes, the settings, the mood, the tone, the imagery, the use of metaphor and simile.

2.Listing all that is working well in the piece. Please be specific. Find at least three examples of elements that are working well and write them down. This can be anything from a specific sentence you like to the overall theme of the piece.

3.Listing the elements of the story that are confusing or unclear. Again, this could be a sentence that seems awkward or a specific section of the piece that doesn’t seem to fit with the rest of the story/poem. Please be specific with your feedback and please offer ONLY constructive criticism.
