Ramblings for Week Five March 30-April 5
You do not need to post ramblings this week because you will be setting up response groups and starting to decide what you will write for a personal narrative/memoir. You all should have received an email with your group instructions for the week. The length, genre and topic are up to you. I have had poems, scripts,short stories, and traditional essays completed for this assignment. This is your opportunity to write what you wish, how ever you wish. Use your group to brainstorm possibilities this week. And be there to respond to other group members. Write on!

I know we don't have to comment this week, but in case anyone is interested, I shared the two-word poetry idea with my Creative Writing class today, and they came up with some fun ideas. They looked skeptical about the concept at first, but once they got writing, they had some really good ones. One guy made his into a riddle:
Monstrous playful
Scary funny
Beastly clown
Seal coca-cola
White fur
Bloody face
Of course, it was title "Polar Bear."
A girl wrote this one:
Dazzling colors
Up above
It's open
Shine brightly
Shine dimly
Hard work
Don't try
Your choice
To leap
And learn
To discipline
And succeed
Be planted
And blossom
Or just
Thrown away
Overly tired
Crushed spirit
Too lazy
Give it
A try
You may
Just shine
Anyway, we had fun with these today in class. Thanks again for the idea (Debbie?).
