Experimentation
Pick 5-7 of your favorite journal entries. You can scan, photograph, or type them. For each piece, describe the assignment that inspired you to create the text (if there was one), and explain what you like about what you’ve written. You may want to include a paragraph introducing this page as well.
Revision
Include a “before” and “after” sample with a revision analysis. The revision analysis must explain what problems were present in the original text, describe what you learned through correcting them, and outline your goals for future essays. I suggest that you scan or photograph the “before” essay to preserve any notes made on it. This may not be one of the essays from the “final drafts” section.
