Our in-class assignment was as follows:
- Brainstorm a list of individuals that you could write about in terms of your relationship.
- These should be peopleĀ or a person who important in your life, who you can about write at least five times
- These should be in-person interactions so you can use concrete detail when describing the place, the time, the person.
After you’ve chosen one person to write about, begin:
ā¢Describe one specific experience with that person.Ā Write at least five or six sentences.
ā¢Then, skip a line and describe a second scene with that person. Consider moving farther back or further forward in time.
ā¢If you have time, skip a line again and jot down or begin writing a third time with that same person.
As you develop this series into a set of micro essays, remember that these fragments should connect into an essay that is drawn together by your reflection and shaping of the events.
