Hello Creative Writers!
Here is your first assignment. Please respond to this post with comments.
What we are going to do, among other things, is post our writing by a certain deadline, and then receive reader feedback - also by a deadline. This is so that we can discuss, workshop in class, and revise.
As far as the kind of feedback, I am asking for your ideas. What would you like to hear from readers about your writing?
If there is one rule, then it is that you must comment on the writing and never on the writer. So, as my friend Dr. Whorton says, " 'This line is not funny' is okay, but 'You're not funny' is not okay." In other words, it's about the writing, not the writer.
So, please respond to this by February fourth. The question to answer is:
"What is it about your writing that you would like readers to constructively comment on?"
