Task One

I plan to write my task on a specific person in my life.  I am writing it about my nephew who has made a big impact on my life.  He has been through more in the first year of his life than most people go through in a lifetime.    The only problem I see with this, is that I wont be able to keep it short.  :)  I hope that it will bring awareness to childhood illnesses to everyone who reads it.  Cant wait to get started.

  1. Hi April,

    What is your exact focus for this paper?

    1) Your nephew and his illness
    2) How your nephew's illness has affected you
    3) What he has been through

    These are all interrelated issues. You may find that as you are writing this task paper, you want to include ALL sorts of info, which is why I encourage writers (yes, I mean you) to freewrite. I understand that it may not be a part of your process. However, by freewriting, it will allow you to get everything out onto the page. After you let it breathe for a day or two, revisit what you have written and locate a focus you would like to explore.
