04.18.11: UPDATE

READING: If you haven't already done so, please read the DeSilva essay "Endings" on pages 116-121 in Telling True Tales, along with pages 126-132.

WRITING: For next class, please a) write into your work at least two "marriage moments," as defined by LeMann in his craft-essay "Weaving Story and Idea, and b) using DeSilva's notions of what constitutes a finely-crafted ending, re-write and augment the conclusion of your non-fiction piece. These additions and emendations should be considerable enough that your essay should be nearing the 3-page, single-spaced threshold.
