Writing Workshop - 6/27 - Journalism Classroom - Tuesday Morning

[mycanonhatesme]

Chloe was back on the laptop this morning when everyone came in, drinking what was clearly not her first cup of coffee.


"Okay, so I'm doing a slight switch in the syllabus this week. Those of you who have been looking towards the Romance class with dread will be happy to know that you have one last week of a reprieve." Chloe laughed, and handed out the worksheet for this week, before launching into a short lecture about fanfiction and its characteristics which is probably a lecture the mun could give at frightening length.

"Now, I'd like to think that either at home, or in your time here at school, you've been exposed to some television shows or some movies. So, I'd like you to take the rest of the class period to work on some of your own fanfiction. Write yourself into the story, or stick two characters together who were never able to get together while the show was on. It's entirely up to you.

"Yeah, totally. I've actually seen some really good Wormhole X-treme stuff. Not that I, you know, read a lot of this kind of thing," she added.

"Huh. Where would a guy...or girl...whoever find some of this stuff?" Not that he was interested. At all.

Chloe smirked. "It used to be that everything was put into zines that were really hard to find and kind of underground. But that was before computers, so it's all on the internet now. If you go to a search engine and put in something like 'Wormhole X-treme fanfiction', you'd probably find more than enough to get you started."

"Not for me. For my friend."

Lamest excuse ever. Kawalsky quickly retreated with that knowledge.

Like a good teacher, Chloe didn't laugh until Kawalsky had completely retreated. "Friend. Riiiight."
