Just a reminder about your memoir for Monday... It should describe your experience of 9/11/01 in an interesting way and it should be greater than or equal to 2 pages long. Please don't mess with margins or fonts (double-spaced, times new roman or similar, 1" margins)--it's pretty obvious when that happens, and you should have a lot to say anyway. Try to have fun with this assignment and push your boundaries a bit. It's pretty simple to write a chronological memoir that begins, "I was in 2nd hour when my teacher told us that..." I will read 19 papers and the more innovative you can make yours, the happier I'll be. Don't forget to add a title to your memoir, too; this is another opportunity for you to flex your writing muscles. I'd like a few of you to share your memoirs in class and I'll look to volunteers first.
As always, please let me know if you have questions about the assignment or the course.
