Remember: Write with passion and honesty. All I can ask for is honest
effort and diligence in your work as a writer in this community. Make a
commitment to your work and take pride in what you write and submit
for a grade. Do not worry about your creative skills at the start of the
course; our classroom experiences will be dedicated to improvement
