Over the weekend please read pages 16-28 (Do not read 'choosing your own topic yet') in The St. Martin's Guide To Writing (TSMGTW).
Using your critical thinking skills, consider the example essays: "Calling Home" and "An American Childhood."
- What is happening in these stories on a literal level?
- Answer one "Analyzing Writing Strategies" question on page 25
- On pages 26 -27 TSMGTW lists several qualities of what makes a well-told story. Based on your own experience in reading, what would you add to this list to describe what other features effective stories have?
