Hello, literature lovers / composers. Yes, if you are in ENG 102, you are (or eventually will be) a lover of literature as well as a composer of writings about literature. If you don't love literature and writing yet, you will by the end of the semester. Even if by the end of the semester you still do not love it, and maybe you won't even like it, simply pretend that you do. Humor me.
The writing here is a little less formal than the papers and paragraphs you have to type up and hand in. You should make sure you have read the assigned work actively (take notes or write on the story, poem, or play) before you come here. Follow the DO NOW directions whenever you read a post. When you leave comments, be specific by referring to the literature with proper citation. If a post includes an outside source, you should take a look at the source on your own before leaving a comment. Remember, even though the blog is less formal, you still need to use proper Standard English.
Until the next assignment, happy reading!
