Mystery Fiction Draft: Day 5; Clue (conclusion)

This morning, we will complete our viewing of Clue. At the end of the film, we'll use the rest of the period to continue writing your mystery story draft--or read And Then There Were None.

At the conclusion of Clue, please post a review of the film on YOUR blog.

Need an ending? Check out the article from Cat Rambo: 3 Things That End a Story Well; 6 Clever Ways to Achieve the Perfect Ending (article from Writer's Edit), and Beginnings, Middles, Ends: Crafting the Mystery.

HOMEWORK: Please read chapters 13-16 (pg.211-269) for Wednesday (there may be a quiz on chapters 1-16!). Bring your books and your mystery drafts back with you to class.  Drafts of your mystery story will be due at the end of class Wednesday, April 10. We will workshop the drafts Friday.

Your journals are also due Wednesday. Please bring them to class.
