  1. okay for this creative writing assignment this week, we are
  2. writing chain stories.
  3. A chain story is one whole single story written by
  4. multiple authors.
  5. Each author picks up the part in the story where
  6. the previous one left off, and that just keeps getting
  7. added to the way we're going to do.
  8. This is in the discussions feature on canvas.
  9. You will be using the reply feature toe.
  10. Add two stories on dhe.
  11. They can be, you know, three replies long or 10
  12. replies long.
  13. Wherever the story takes you to start this assignment, you're
  14. going to write an exposition, A ZX, your first post
  15. on the discussion board.
  16. Now, if you need a reminder of what an exposition
  17. is, that is simply the set up of a story
  18. where a plot line starts.
  19. So you're going to do this in at least three
  20. sentences. If you want to write MAWR, that's fine.
  21. I'm actually not going to put a maximum cap on
  22. it. Whatever makes the most sense to you, it makes
  23. you feel good like, yeah, this is an exposition, but
  24. at least three sentences long.
  25. You can start this story with a prompt that you've
  26. made up completely in your head.
  27. Or you can use writer igniter, which we've used at
  28. the beginning of the year wth e automatic prompt generator
  29. to give you some ideas and that will be linked
  30. at the bottom of the instructions today.
  31. Once you post your exposition, then you can move on
  32. to part two of the assignment, which is toe add
  33. to five other stories.
  34. So you're gonna go to five different posts from five
  35. different people and add the next event in their story.
  36. I'm asking that this needs to be at least one
  37. sentence long.
  38. Although I want you to again just do what feels
  39. right. If you have more information to give.
  40. Do it.
  41. Try not to speak through this just for the sake
  42. of speeding through it.
  43. Because, like I said earlier this week, creative writing really
  44. does help us be prepared for academic writing.
  45. Give us that confidence and give us that comparability level
  46. in order for us to be successful there.
  47. So make sure you write with purpose and you can
  48. go ahead and get start
