On Ben Woodards suggestion, for my first freshman writing - TopicsExpress



          

On Ben Woodards suggestion, for my first freshman writing assignment, modeling from Patrick Maddens essay on Michael Martones used water, Im having my students writing descriptive essays ostensibly selling items on eBay. Theyre currently brainstorming items that fit at least one of these criteria: 1) Something that has been important to you but you are now ready to give up, 2) Something you would never expect to see on eBay, 3) Something that has little monetary value, which you must “sell” to potential buyers by convincing them of its importance. Some items Im hearing so far: single strand of hair, used hot sauce bottle, dirty underwear. What have I gotten myself into?
