Since we've read the sample student
literacy autobiographies, my head has been spinning a mile a minute
about what I want to write about. I have had many experiences with
literacy: keeping a journal, writing fiction stories, and taking bus
trips to the library when I was a teen. But which experience will
allow me to say what I really want to say? Is anyone having the
problems with too many examples? How will you narrow down your focus,
but still have enough to write about to fill up the 6 required pages?
Your thoughts.

Renee,
ReplyDeleteHave you tried any of the invention exercises centered around any or all of these topics? Last evening's in-class exercises were pretty productive for me. They yielded surprising results. I was very pleased. Perhaps try taking each of the three topics you've identified that are personal to you and doing some focused free writes on each one? Then see which yields the most results?
