American Literature


Revised March 2020

Short Works
Research stories AFTER you've read them and written your journals including watching any videos I have made.

Save these. Download them so you have them. Print them and take notes. Take notes somehow as you read. Or take notes on a document digitally. There are many different ways to do all of these, but most importantly take notes. Those notes are notes for later papers.
