For this assignment, you must do some kind of outlining and/or prewriting for your short story or personal narrative. After filling out some basic information here, that prewriting can take on whatever
form you want: a story outline, some ideas for various scenes, even some art/storyboards as you work

prewriting/outlining to Canvas.
Will you be writing a fictional short story or a personal narrative?
What's the basic central idea/theme of your story? In brief, what do you think it will be about? What do you

You can hash-out your ideas below, or do them on a different document and then submit both this and that
document to Canvas for credit. Again, acceptable formats/contributions include: outlines, descriptions of
important scenes or just first attempts at writing important scenes, artistic storyboards/images (whether created
or built out of found media), an audio-file of at least a couple of minutes where you talk through your ideas:
