About

Welcome to Essay Weekly! Here are the blogging policies:

Each week, 1-2 students will be assigned to post a critical review/analysis* of a reading from that week. In this post, you will need to include at least 2 quotes from the essay, discuss your reading experience (what were you thinking, feeling, while reading the essay? How did it impact you as a reader and writer?), and explain how (or if) this essay contributes to, or has changed, your own creative process as a writer and/or your perception of creative nonfiction as a whole.
            *500-word minimum

Each student will be required to provide at least 8 comments* throughout the semester in response to another students blog post. I expect these comments to be civil, engaging, and thorough. For example, comments such as this—“I thought this was a real cool post. Nice work”—will not be counted for credit (although you are, of course, welcome to support your other students with positive comments!).
            *50-word minimum (per response)
