Well, this week was pretty short-lived. We only had class on Thursday due to the snow. The break was nice, of course. :) Anyway, on Thursday, we work shopped Claire, Kyle, and Brad's poems. When I was annotating and typing up my 2 pg. critical analysis or what have you, I found myself repeating almost everything I had written down on the copy of the poems. So I am not sure how useful having both the annotations and the critical analysis will be for the poets. I understand why our professor wants us to do both, but sometimes I feel like it might be a waste of time and especially paper. Maybe it will get better as we work shop more people. From my understand we do not have class on Tuesday (February 8th) so I guess we're just work shopping Lily's poems on Thursday? The class will be work shopping MY first draft for my story on Feb. 17th. I am kind of dreading it because I have not started it (I know I know, I'm being a slacker). I have a bunch of scenes and dialogue in my head and now I just have to knuckle down and get to the actual process of putting it down on paper. This scares me because I'm worried it won't be like what I have in my head. And I'm ranting. Whoops. Well, that's all for now!
