Writing Homework Help

Suggested discussion questions:

• Identify two examples of figurative language in the story. (Be sure to read through the posts that come before yours, so you don’t repeat one!)
• What is the narrative arc breakdown in this story (conflict, crisis/turning point, resolution)?
• What is the author’s tone (or attitude toward the subject matter) in this story?
• Are you left with resonance at the end? If so, consider how the author accomplishes this. If not, rewrite the ending for us!
• When you read a few paragraphs of your own story, does the “voice” sound like you? If not, what can you do to remedy that?
