Stephen King Project

Again, today in the lab, please use your time to work on this project. See previous posts for details and/or information.

Short motivational videos if you get stuck or need inspiration today or anytime!
Writing Motivation #1
Dreams to Reality (Writing Motivation) #2
J.K. Rowling: (Writing Motivation) #3

Remember that your project (the 5 drafts) are due April 5. Drafts can be of any appropriate length or specific genre or style, although you may wish to play around a bit with horror/suspense writing (see H.P. Lovecraft post below). Your work will be collected in your portfolio.


Coming up: the art of revision. You will be asked to further develop one of your pieces into a more complete second draft. But this will happen after break.
