Narrative writing

A real book is not one that we read, but one that reads us.

                                                                                              -- W.H. Auden

4.  NARRATIVE WRITING ASSIGNMENT -- this assignment is due Thursday.  Please share your story with me on Google Docs and also give me a hard copy.  Friday I would like you to share your story in a group.  Please be prepared for this activity.  Questions to consider as you review your writing:

                                          * Do I have a well-developed plot?

                                          * Have I brought my characters to life showing motivation?

                                          * Have I used the show not tell approach in my writing?
