Friday, February 16

Agenda:

 

  • Scales – Free write – 10 minutes; however, incorporate a grammatical writing technique that is new to you: Sentence Variation for Creative Writing
  • discuss the Drabbles assignment/examples
  • Start thinking about your own Solar Punk Drabble – play around with:
    • world building language – futuristic stuff
    • Solarpunk characteristics (see resources): community, diversity, tech + nature…
    • Speculative fiction: what thread from today extends into a ‘possible’ future reality that reveals awareness of a potential dystopian future, but focuses on solutions instead – Solarpunk?
    • what conflict will your drabble explore: personal? universal?
    • Read this Reddit essay to understand conflict in Solarpunk: What is the Conflict in Solarpunk
  • For Tuesday:
    • be prepared for your face-to-face assessment discussion
    • show evidence of Solarpunk drabble writing – remember the final drabble will only be 100 words
