The last official day of class is Monday May 4. Instead of meeting that day, we’ll have individual meetings that week about final revisions. This means you need to get me at the very least your revised opening, and better yet, the whole thing by Thursday April 30. Then we can talk about one more pass at the paper, one more chance to make it the best you can make it. I know this is exhausting and intimidating and you may be sick of the thing by then. But this is what writers go through.
So, the schedule:
Monday May 4-Friday May 8 we’ll have conferences. You’ll need to send me your revisions as much as you have before the conferences on Thursday April 30.
The final drop dead deadline is Wednesday May 13 at 5. I have to read and grade. I’ll give you electronic feedback on the stories.
One word about grades. Those of you who have kept up will do well. If you are behind and I have seen much, catch up, catch up.
