I’m working on a english writing question and need a sample draft to help me understand better.

Part 1: Writing Assignment

Exercise A: Braiding Time

Write four new paragraphs for the story . They will involve the main character, according to the following instructions:

• In the first paragraph, your character is engrossed in an activity in the present moment (running an errand, cooking a meal, folding laundry, applying makeup or shaving, looking for something, etc.). This exercise will work best if you have your story’s conflict in mind.
• In the second paragraph, while your character is still doing the same present-time activity, have him/her imagine something that will happen in the future.
• In the third paragraph, while the character is still doing the same present-time activity, write about a past event that this present action is triggering your character to remember.
• In the final paragraph, use elements of forward-looking and backward-looking as your character continues or completes the present-time activity.

Before posting your exercise, work on making the transitions between the paragraphs smooth.

(Transitions:

The bridges that lead your reader from section to section, through time and space.)

(This exercise was adapted from Now Write!)

Part 2: Peer Response

You are responsible for responding to two of your peers’ writing exercises that I will upload below. In your response to a peer’s work, please answer the following questions:

• Which part(s) do you think most deeply/descriptively show backward or forward thinking and why?
• Are there part(s) where more showing description would make a character’s memory or imagining about the future more vivid to you as a reader? If so, which parts? Can you make suggestions?

Use what you’ve learned about moving through time in this module to craft your response.
