Creative Writing [Tuesday, 5th Period]

[cuff-me-once.livejournal.com]

Today there were coffee and pastries laid out on a trestle table at the side of the classroom, and the caption '7 DAYS TO DEADLINE' written on the whiteboard in large letters.

"Okay kids, next week is our last class, and you're going to be presenting your finished stories to the rest of the class," Rick said, leaning against his desk. "That means that we're going to spend today buckling down and doing some intensive work on them. If you need to make that last trip to the library or computer lab for research, get going. If you're having trouble or if you need a fresh pair of eyes to look over things, talk to me or ask a classmate for help. I'll be holding office hours for last minute hand-holding later in the week but if you want in-depth critique I'm going to need your current drafts by the end of the class."

He gestured towards the trestle table. "There's coffee and snacks if you want them, and you may listen to music on headphones provided it's low enough not to be distracting for everyone else. Otherwise, let's get writing."

"But close enough that if for some reason he passed by the campus he might start thinking about 'what ifs'?"

"Something like his band was doing a performance in Rochester, or even on the campus?" Shilo's expression turned thoughtful. "Yeah, that would work."

"If he's unhappy with what he's currently got, then it shouldn't take much to get him started wondering what would make him happy," Rick said. "And once he starts..."

"Right, right!" Shilo, eager to get back to work now that she had the rest of her plot in mind, started to dart back to her desk, but then turned back around and grabbed her journal again. "Thank you Mr. Castle sir!" she said, and then was away to grab a coffee and resume her work.
