Mon 4/10--L: Journal entry due if you didn't do the one due 3/20 (please check Canvas to see if you did the assignment already or not):

Optional topic: Try writing your journal from one or more different points of view
- For example, try using the second person or third person limited
- You can also experiment with form (e.g. writing your journal as a newspaper article, etc.)
If you'd like a prompt, don't forget the Google doc we made at the beginning of the semester; it has many great prompts on it that you all suggested!

Weds 4/12--S:

Read "Invasion from Outer Space" (reader, 133-135)
Read "Orientation" (3 PDFs below).
Read "Oral History" (1 PDF below).
For each of these stories, think about POV. Which of these POVs do you find the most interesting/effective? Why?
Note: we'll do all-class workshopping of stories the weeks of May 1st and May 8th. Please look at your schedules and be prepared to tell me today (Weds) which days you cannot be workshopped (b/c of APs or other commitments).
- Once the schedule for workshopping is set, it will be your responsibility to switch days, if need be.

Thurs 4/13--L: Please do the following assignment on openings as described on Canvas here under "4/13--Opening Lines and Analysis"
