Statement of Intent
You are responsible for deciding what you will produce this quarter, with the one caveat that I will vet your project idea(s) based on appropriateness of scope. Your statement of intent must be 300 words, free of typos, and posted to your Wikiversity userspace. It will include the following:

Throughout this quarter I want to write three short stories, both being at least 1,500 words. Also I would like to learn how to write at least two professional business letters.

What I am hoping to accomplish is how to write a professional business letter to future employers or co-workers. I also would like to improve my creative writing skills.

Publication and Presentation
Required: Posted at Wikiversity. Options: Zine, recording, or publication.

Week 2- Have a rough draft of first short story complete, and edited by someone Week 3- Complete first short story Week 4- Learn the correct format for writing business letters, and write at least two practice business letters. Week 5- Write two business letters to local video production companies to try and get an internship Week 6 - Have a rough draft of second short story complete, and edited by someone Week 7- Complete second short story

Some things that I could see go wrong are, procrastination, writer's block, or maybe projects taking longer than anticipated. Ways I can prevent these things are: making sure that I have things done before my deadlines, and focusing on projects and not allowing things to distract me from finishing.
