Week Two Blog Prompt

Narration is just one of many strategies for developing an essay. Narrative writing is essentially telling a story, often relying on personal experience. Effective narrative writing:

  1. is told from a particular point of view,
  2. makes and supports a point (has a purpose),
  3. is filled with precise detail,
  4. uses vivid verbs and modifiers,
  5. uses conflict and sequence as does any good plot,
  6. may use dialogue.

For your blog assignment this week, you are to write a narrative consisting of about 400-500 words. I want you to choose a community that you have been or are currently a member. What is that community?  How did you become part of this community and how long have you been a member?  What actions does your community perform that demonstrates it is a community (this will involve you also providing your own definition of community)?
