Welcome to Creative Writing!

Welcome!  First of all - I am SO excited for this class, and I hope you guys are too!  I've heard that some people take this class because it's "soooo easy", but I warn you now - it's not going to be a simple walk through the park; I expect greatness out of each and every one of you because I know you all possess something creative within you.  Your goal should be to leave this class a much better writer than you were when you walked through the door on January 17th, so take my class seriously.  I will not tolerate slackers! 

I expect you to write (every. single. day). 
I expect you to share your work with your peers and teacher during class (don't be afraid to put yourself out there - we all look or sound foolish from time to time - I know I do!). 
I expect you to walk into my room with an open mind (try to think in ways you've never thought before!)
I expect that each of you respect your fellow classmates and provide constructive, honest feedback concerning their work (negative comments will not be tolerated). 
I expect each of you to take that constructive feedback into account while revising your work (you never get better if you refuse another's advice). 

But most of all - I expect us to have fun as we write!
