    Creative Writing:Online


    Welcome to our final unit! During the next three weeks, you will be working from home as opposed to coming to class on a daily basis. Yippee!

    This is where you will find resources for the unit, participate in discussion and peer process writing, and upload assignments for others to review. Everything that normally happens in class will still occur, only it will be online rather than face-to-face. Please remember, expectations of your performance and interaction are the same as if we were meeting in the traditional classroom setting.

    Happy writing!
