I truly enjoyed the writing marathon day, me the person who does not pine to write. The lesson let me release the bad feeling I was having about a meeting that I went to the night before. If there is nothing else that I come away with from this class I have leaned that writing is so healing! It was great to draw the superintendent as "Hitler" and to continue my story board in the same fashion. Thanks to Nick and Melissa for teaching me this new skill.
I really got a different perspective about Graphic Novels, I found out they are much better then I thought. I was never a big comic book fan myself so I never gave them real chance. Now I can look at them in a more educated way and appreciate them more. I always saw them as a good way for a poor reader to be successful, but now I think they have real use for good reader too.
I really enjoyed Melissa's presentation of the art pieces also. I really enjoy art and it was great, rather than just looking at it myself, to look at it and hear several perspectives. It makes the piece so much interesting.

So glad to hear the marathon was a positive experience for you. Was it more wonderful b/c it was outdoors, away from our normal classroom? Or was it the actual writing itself, the freedom to use writing to heal thyself?
