Blog Prompt for 3/28

So far in your book club meetings I have asked you to reflect on theme and research. For today, I would like you to go back to the heart of what we began learning about at the beginning of the semester: character and place. How does your writer craft character and scene in the text? Are there characters you feel connected to for certain reasons? Ones you don't? Are there places that you can clearly understand? Others you can't? Why or why not?

Blog Prompt for 3/21

The essay "Snowfall" is a feature that was published both in print and digitally.

What did they add or take a way from the reading experience for you?
