After our quiz and essay on Hemingway and the short story collection: The Snows on Kilimanjaro, please complete your Bradbury project today in the lab.
If you finish early, please either read the article handout on endings, dramatic structure, and narrative authority, the blog post above on ENDINGS, or prepare one of your stories for next class' workshop.
