your second story

let's just make this optional, shall we? those who already have almost-done drafts for the second round of workshops need not participate in the writing exercise. the point of this exercise is to get those who have no ready 2nd stories to have something to submit along with the rest. and so. here goes. instructions:

> choose one among any of the stories discussed in the 1st round of workshops.
> retell, rewrite, or re-imagine the story.
> retaining just the characters, play with the other elements of the story and come up with your own.

submit your stories to me on the week of the 9th. last submission is on the 13th. (friday the 13th!). i can only get them through email, since i'll be over at emily dickinson's town, braving winter, by then.

make hard copies for all members of the class please. we will resume the workshop as soon as i get back.


***

i am putting together some essays on writing by writers of different genres. we'll take up these essays on the 4th and the 6th. please prepare some 20 pesos for photocopying cost.

for tomorrow, see to it taht you've read kris's story.

see you.
