Don't forget to catch up on all your journals for Wednesday. Also bring three copies of your rough draft for workshopping on Wednesday.

Also there is NO CLASS on Wednesday, October 13. We will read "On Dumpster Diving" and Adverbs for Monday, October 11 instead of the 13, and just scratch "Morning Pages" for now.

Journal #11: A Secret
Write the story of an important secret. You don't have to share this one unless you want!
