Your assignment: Making progress
Write a 500 word news story about some interesting that’s happening nearby, keeping it third person, factual, and journalistic. Now write something of a similar length about something that’s happened to you, keeping it first person, personal, and expressing your personality through prose. Share in the forum. What differences are there? Which did you prefer writing?
Make sure you also give feedback on others’ work – the more you give, the more you’re likely to receive.
Once you’ve shared your work and given feedback on others, hit ‘mark complete.’
