Writing Assignment 4

Due during the class period before your workshop slot:

Ten pages of Act I. These may be the first ten pages, or they may come from later in the act; if they come from later, you'll need to give us the set-up, so we have sufficient context for what we read.

You will, again, need to make sufficient photocopies of your pages (double-sided is fine) for everyone in the class, and you will distribute those copies during the class session before your workshop slot, so that your peers will be able to provide you with thoughtful feedback.
