Thanks for another great day. Please post if you didn't get a chance to talk in class today or if an idea occurred to you between class and now . The question is: to what extent do you think that Erdrich tries to persuade the reader to think about an idea in a particular way?
Just want to say this again... Omit forever the use of phrases such as "I think", "In my opinion", "As far as I can see", "I'm pretty sure that" or anything like that. Any of these, as well as the use of the word "you" convey the following message: "I'm twelve and nobody has ever taught me anything about writing."
Love you!
Okay, now say some smart stuff!
