Day Seventeen / 9.30.10

Today we started with a quote from bell hooks: “The academy is not paradise. But learning is a place where paradise can be created.” We then journaled on the difference between the academy and learning, and where else learning can occur outside of the academy.

Next, we covered the Show don't Tell handout, and began the Cliche handout. Finally, we covered some aspects of writing that I wanted to encourage you to either employ or avoid.
