Abandon Hope All Ye Who Enter!

Dear poor soul:
Your writing will begin soon.
Some reading and writing advice:
The reading assignments are generally easy and fairly interesting. Just read them! Understand them, or just try if you can't. Answer whichever question you feel most comfortable with. The most important thing is to just do it; class discussion goes best when the whole class has made an effort.
The writing is not terrible. Give it your all, and try to do each draft in one sitting. Spellcheck your draft personally, have it reviewed once or twice, and then go back and edit! Allow your essay to change as needed, always keeping to a strong thesis and a well-flowing format.
Class and instructor:
If one just pays attention in class, his/her writing will improve! Use your MLA guide and whatever resources assigned. Don't screw off! It will take you nowhere.
Professor Mendham is very nice. She has a background in writing and will help you! She leaves very good comments and feedback, so use them.
Most of all, enjoy class!
