Class #13: ASSIGNMENTS: Monday, October 24, 2016

READ & ANNOTATE (due Wednesday)

Apprentice Writer at Susquehanna University story called Heels

The Atlantic: The Rhett Butlers by @Katherine_Heiny (story is linked here).

ANNOTATE all of this reading (fiction & non-fiction) in preparation of writing a literary analysis paper. Also, read the following text book chapter that will help you better understand and prepare for the writing assignment.

Extra Credit Twitter/online commentary Assignments: Craft a tweet that pronounces some analysis of Tell Them You Had a Mole Removed by Julie Hensley (hard copy here, link to the audio)Try to tweet something that provokes or responds to an argument over the thematic importance (purpose) of the piece (in other words, something that illustrates a solid, level 2-3 reading). Use our common hash tag (#costrhet) so that the Tweets are more of a discussion than a series of individual posts. In other words, I am interested in your engaging one another. Please mention one another and build on thematic threads presented by classmates. Discuss things we brought up in class. Make specific reference to the work. This works best when it is handled as a virtual discussion. All tweets should be made @joecostal. If you have the room in your tweet, add @southern_review (but ALWAYS to me & #costrhet). 

I had an article published last week on The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Extra credit for anyone who engages in a thoughtful, content-driven comment on the piece in the comments section of the Quirk Books website.
