Week 2
On Tuesday the whole class went in a circle and talked about their project for the semester. We discussed issues we were having with our project. Then after that we got into our small groups and pretty much did the same thing except we went into greater detail. My group members are always full of ideas or suggestions to happily lend when I find myself stuck with my project. And that's all we really did on Tuesday.
Thursday's class was all about poetry. Everyone brought in a poem they had written and we went around the room and read our poems aloud. Then we had the person sitting next to us edit our poem. Lauren was very thorough with her editing and suggestions and has given me a lot to work with if I ever wish to re-polish my poem. We also talked about poetry in general and what we thought the definition of poetry was.
On a side note, I am a little concerned with the way we are supposed to workshop for class this week. I feel like having to turn in a two page critical paper and also annotate the poems for each person is really repetitive and I do not see the point in it. I think the way we workshop should be put up for discussion in class this week to see if anyone else has these same concerns.
All for now,
Liz
