Your first assignment involves two readings and some thinking:

READ & RESPOND:

  • Miranda July, “The Swim Team”
  • Haruki Murakami, “On Seeing the 100% Perfect Girl One Beautiful April Morning”

THINK:

  • Plan out ideas for your first writing project, a short story of your own.  With the stories by July and Murakami in mind, think specifically about the narrator you’ll use in your story and about how you will create in-depth, three-dimensional characters.  Post your ideas on the Weekly Journal for Week 1.
