ENG318 ENG/318 ENG 318 Week 1 Discussion 2/DQ 2 Reading and Critiquing Creative Writing -[LATEST] Reading
and Critiquing Creative Writing- For this discussion, select one of the pieces from the list of required readings for this
week and write a practice critique. Review the sample critiques: Sample Critique ? Fiction and Sample Critique ? Poetry.
Address the following questions in your critique: ? What is the central idea, subject, or emotion expressed in the piece?
? What is the tone of the piece? ? Is language used to create effective imagery, or could the images be made stronger?
If so, how? ? What was the point of view of the piece, and how does it inform your reading? ? Is the ending effective?
Why, or why not? ? Does the piece build on a particular theme? Is its exploration of the theme effective, or could it be
made more so? ? What suggestions would you make to the author to improve the work? Be sure to use specific
examples from the piece to substantiate your critique. Remember that a critique includes constructive criticism and
praise, but it should strive to balance both. It is important for the author being critiqued to understand how his or her
piece is being read and whether or not the intent of the writing is conveyed effectively. Your initial post should be at least
250 words in length. Support your claims with examples from required material(s) and/or other scholarly sources, and
properly cite your sources using APA style. Respond to at least two of your classmates? posts by Day 7. In your
responses, you may choose to address how your peers approached the text in their critiques. You may note that some
of your peers discuss what they like or dislike about the piece; if this is the case, you may choose to question why they
liked or disliked the piece and question how its construction evoked such responses. Remember to bring the focus back
to what the piece under consideration does, how it works, and why it is effective or not as effective as it could be.
