The main subject for the next week or so will be process, process writing, and Kaizen.
Reading: Read chapter four of Writing for College, Writing for Life. It's the chapter on Narrative or experience based writing. In reading this chapter, pay particular attention to the examples and the discussion of the process each author went through to produce their text. At the end of the chapter, there's also a discussion of the creating a narrative and the writing process.
In addition to the chapter from the text, read carefully the various posts I make this week on Process, Kaizen, and Process Writing. The notion of process vs product is at the heart of this class, so make sure to get these concepts down.
Writing: Take notes on the reading. Update your blog with a reading response to the chapter and to my posts, and update the process section of your writing inventory with what you learn this week.

Hey I just had a question about the reading response part of the assignment. That part is still a bit unclear to me. When writing a reading response, do you want us to kind of summarize it and write about how it could help us, if we liked the chapter or not, questions about the chapter, etc?
I think I'm on the right track here.
