Drumroll Please: The First Assignment

It is currently 12:04am and today I start the first writing assignment of my college career, the literary narrative. Frankly, after today's fiasco with the simple task of writing some dialogue (that I completely over thought), I don't think this will be a good paper. I'm following the Norton Field Guide's advice, though, and will go through the steps of considering the rhetorical situation, using a method to generate ideas (I'm leaning towards 'looping'), doing this-and-that while drafting, fixing that-and-this while revising, and making sure to set deadlines for myself. I'm setting off for bed now, but be prepared, because I'll be posting my narrative this Monday. The topic? Who I thank for my love of reading, and why (despite our problems) we will always have books to keep us close. Good night!
