Rough draft of Ending Rewrite/Monologue due Wednesday. Final draft due Tuesday 3/14.
Tips for Ending Rewrite:
1. Theme: does it somehow connect to the book?
2. Conflict: What is the main conflict of your narrative?
3. Characters—Who was involved (give names)? For each, decide if:
a. Dialogue is needed to show their voices and/or contribution to the event?
i. Rules for dialogue:
1. One speaker, one paragraph. Include any related description, action, etc. that goes along with the dialogue but only one speaker should appear in each body paragraph
2. Put the punctuation at the end of the sentence within the quotation marks.
3. Minimize exclamation points. Use description and set up of paragraph to create mood and tone instead.
b. Description is needed to show who they are?
4. Plot: Yes you can have lapses in time. Use if because there’s a need or no reason to include that missing time. Use:
a. Ellipses (…)
b. Afterword
c. Many years later…
d. The next day…
