Tuesday:
Journal #1
"If you're going to be a writer, the first essential is just to write. Do not wait for an idea. Start writing something and the ideas will come. You have to turn the faucet on before the water starts to flow." - Louis L'Amour
Wednesday:
Journal #2
"Zest. Gusto. How rarely one hears these words used. How rarely do we see people living, or for that matter, creating by them. Yet if I were asked to name the most important items in a writer's make-up, the things that shape his material and rush him along the road to where he wants to go, I could only warn him to look to his zest, see to his gusto." - Ray Bradbury
We discussed the class syllabus, including the major assignments, class expectations, grading policy, and late-work policy. As a class, we created a list of important elements for tomorrow's pressure comp. Need a copy of the syllabus? Click here to go to the class website.
