6-1 Creative Writing Assignment

This week's assignment is a journal entry from the perspective of a life form (carbon-based like us? human? completely alien? you decide!) who existed on Mars before the massive climate changed wiped out the oceans there. Your journal entry should:

- Be creative! 

- Have been written at the very beginning of the climate change, in the middle, or towards the end

- Address what life/society was like on Mars back then for your fictional creature and how life might

  be or was affected by the climate change and the disappearance of the oceans

- Be less than 300 words (remember, it's just one journal entry; you don't have to tell the whole story 

  - just a slice of it!)

- Be written from the first-person perspective ("I")

- Be written in the present tense, as though whatever you're writing is current

- Be in the format that will  be posted in my subsequent blog post

Have fun and email me if you have any questions!
