}Writer’s Workshop
What my comments mean
Dialogue (natural), Show don’t Tell/more showing, development of aspects of a short story (exposition, rising actions, climax, falling actions, resolution), character details (backstory)
First Draft Evaluation: Exemplary, Accomplished, Promising, Developing, Beginning
Answer: How does your story demonstrate/reflect the human experience? What aspects? In what way?
Meet with me (if your draft has comments on it, you have written how it demonstrates the human experience, and you have done what the white board says)
Revise from first draft to second if you have Comments from me and have figured out where to start with those comments (or second to third if you self-revise a bit more)
Revising: working to make the ideas of your story stronger, adding more showing/details, removing parts that don’t work, adding more character detail, move ideas and sentences around, substitute words (stronger descriptions, details, etc)
Final Draft due TUESDAY the 20th: we’ll have some workshop time the next few days
}Editing Draft due 8pm tonight (if you want, google drive)
