Book talk & Indie read.  RLaW: “Cruel As It Is” by Leonard Pitts, Jr.  How was the text written?  What “moves” does the writer make?  See & share what we can find.

Upcoming:  Tomorrow is “lab” day for work on your “essay.”  Expand any quickwrite or notebook writing into a larger piece of writing.  (At least a page and a half, typed, double-spaced, MLA style*).

*You can find a Word document with MLA formatting already in place in our shared Dropbox folder.  Open it and adapt as needed to type your paper.  When you re-save, change the document name to reflect your name and the assignment.
