"Most great stories of adventure, from The Hobbit to Seven Pillars of Wisdom, come furnished with a map. That's because every story of adventure is in part the story of a landscape, of the interrelationship between human beings (or Hobbits, as the case may be) and topography. Every adventure story is conceivable only with reference to the particular set of geographical features that in each case sets the course, literally, of the tale."-Michael Chabon

Homework for Thursday

Generally, check your syllabus for assignments. If it's helpful I can also post them explain them here. (Feel free to comment and let me know if it's helpful for you to have the homework posted online--you're also welcome to use the comment section to pose questions--it might be faster than e-mail.)

For Thursday:

-Large Classroom.
-Write a poem in response to Blood Dazzler, you're welcome to use the material you wrote during class as a launching point for your poem.
-Write a ONE paragraph response to Blood Dazzler explaining what you found meaningful in her book and how you used her stylistic strategies in your poem.

Hope that helps!
