The week of Feb 28th thought process...

This Tuesday in class we practiced trying to write in the eyes of someone else. I found that secret passing excersize rather interesting. It was fun thinking up a life for the character that has to write a note to someone telling about the secret. When I was writing the note, I found it easier to go back to writing as myself. I thought the activity was rather challenging and I really enjoyed doing it. You can really do whatever you would for the person so I was trying to be someone that was completely different from myself just to make things more interesting. I think this activity will make it somewhat easier to write the dramatic monologs simply because it acted as good practice to write as someone else. This made me really think about what exactly I am going to do for my dramatic assignment. I really want to use a character from Gone With the Wind, but I am not quite sure which character would be best to use of what event from the story I can take and make a good piece out of. I'm really excited to think about it more and see what I can come up with. This asignment is definitely different from any other assignment I have ever had to do.
