25 Joy Luck Club and Novella // Due the week of March 15, 2015

Hi Everyone!

The homework is broken up by day this week, so be sure to check the homework for your specific day.

MONDAY:

  • Create a plot diagram for a story idea on which you would like to write a novella.
    • You should plot out an inciting event, 4-5 rising action events, a climax, and your resolution (ending). 
    • You can use brief phrases instead of complete sentences.
  • Write a set of about 15-20 scenes that encompass your entire story.
    • Write about a sentence for each scene so you know what happens during that scene.
    • Don't include any scenes that you think will be boring or filler—no need!
      • Every scene should do at least one of the 2 following things:
        • Carry the story forward
        • Teach us more about an important character
TUESDAY:
  • Read Part 2 of the Joy Luck Club and write 5 discussion questions.
