 * Michael,

I think your impulses toward revision, and moving up a few of the plot revelations, could be a good move, as we talked about in class. If not that, then at least a few more hints so your reader knows to be "intrigued" rather than "skeptical."

 * Michael,

How is this coming along? Let me know if anything's coming up, or if you'd like me to look over anything.

 * Michael,

This seems like a good project, provided you come up with an idea this week that seems worth following up on. Let's see what happens. Generally, I think you should begin even if the idea isn't fully fleshed-out. Valuable things often get discovered about the story only as you write it.

I'm assuming here that each chapter will probably be a few pages (600-100 words), and the whole thing clocks in at maybe 8 or 9 thousand words, to some degree edited by the end of the quarter.
