On this page of the blog I will be posting my works for my English 125 class. These works will include commentaries, essays, a civic/community literary project, and any other assignments my professor may have in store.
Commentaries: These will be my evaluations of a literary work: poem, short story, novel, essay, etc. It's my own analysis and interpretation of the work. It will be written in a casual, but academic tone. I won't have to follow any particular format. If possible, I will provide a link for you to view the work, so you can read what I analyzed and interpreted; at the very least I'll post the title so you can look it up if you choose. For these assignments I'm not really looking for much feedback other than grammar and punctuation.
Essays: As the semester moves along I will be writing at least two essays, and possibly three. The essays will be in MLA format, if needed I can provide a link for the most up-to-dFor these assignments, I am most definitely asking you to read my work, analyze it, critique it, criticize it, provide a counter argument and feedback. As well as proofreading for any spelling, grammar, or punctuation errors you may find. I will give you more information about these essays as I receive it from my professor.
Civic/community literary project: As of right now, I don't have much information about this assignment. What I do know is I will be part of a group that will arrange a public reading, present literary works publicly, and field questions relating to the work. This project is meant to expose the local community to literature and explaining it's importance to me. I will be deciding on a literary theme and selecting works that align with this theme. So, I am open to any ideas/suggestions. Like the essays, as I receive more information I will pass it on. This assignment will be due at the end of the fall semester (December), but worked on starting in early September.
I look forward to hearing from all of you, and sharing my writing(s). This is a scary idea for me; having my family (and maybe in the future some of my friends if I decide to add them) read my writing. However, that doesn't mean hold back. If you have something constructive for me, please let me have it. I want it, and need it to grow as a writer. So, thank you for accepting my invitation and being an integral part of my journey.
