"Excellence is to do a common thing in an uncommon way." --Booker T. Washington
This is going to be the challenge this semester: to look at the ordinary, comfortable, known and make it jump off the page, soar through your readers' eyes, and settle back on the page...different. We are going to write authentically and will discover
your voice. I look forward to sharing our writing.
Bienvenue!Your first assignment on Blogger is to add your "I am" and "Where I'm From" poems. As we study the craft of creative writing, hopefully you will see your writing change from your first poem here, to your last postings. You won't always like the results from the assignments; they are meant to stretch you, not necessary find a glimmer on everyone's page. Keep writing, though, and I know your writing will strengthen.
