Letters from the Moon to the Sun

Hey guys! Just wanted to post a couple of creative letters I received from your assignment Thursday. I thought these were pretty great - and they really did a nice job of using the right format (a letter). Enjoy!

From 6-2, by J.B.:

Dear Sun,

It’s been so long! I having a great time here near earth. How about you?

Earth and I have been having a blast together. We have planned a ton of moon eclipses for the people on Earth. How is Mercury doing? Is he still on the medication?

So I was thinking we can plan a meeting for us to see each other again. Maybe during our eclipses Earth and I have planned, or maybe I can come over and ask pluto to take over for me? Well anyways, The eclipses are 10 Earth days apart, which is 1 day apart to us. So maybe you can get ready during the day and come over? Also Mars is gonna come and help us with the eclipses. There are gonna be a total of 10 eclipses. Well anyways, if you can come over, please come!

I’m also gonna be hosting the Milky Way Galaxy Awards, which is in a month. Isn’t that cool? Plus, the co-host is Jupiter. Maybe we can win Best system award this year! Hopefully we can. Well, tell everyone i said hi!

Sincerely,

                The Moon

Creative Writing Assignment 1

Your first short story should be between 150 and 300 words. Remember to use the Microsoft Word Count feature to check your story length.

Please remember to double-space your paper. Also, please use Calibri font, size 11. This should already be your default setting. Standard paragraph format (use the tab button to indent).

Your story prompt:
"The Day the Power Went Out..."

Remember, this is your story. There is a power outage. How devastating this power outage is, where it occurs, and who is involved is up to you. Just remember what we talked about in class about what makes a story a "story" - there needs to be some sort of conflict or problem and a resolution.

I can't wait to read your first story! This is due next week when I see you again for Creative Writing. Please don't print your story out - save it to your computer instead. I will show you how to share it with me electronically next week.
