The reading:
In your English books, read the essay by Sophronia Liu, "So Tsi-Fai" (pp. 43-46). Notice her techniques for writing about the person she is "profiling."
The writing:
Begin with your draft profile from today's class. If you typed it, print it out. Revise it, keeping in mind (and even rereading) the essay we read in class today. Use concrete images; be observant (even though it may be in retrospect). The new version—along with the draft—is due next Monday. Length: 350-600 words. I do not want anything longer.
See me or e-mail me if you have any questions.
