Don't Forget! Papers due by 9 am TODAY! (UPDATED)
Remember, I must receive your third papers by today (Wed) at 9:00 am. I have communicated with a number of you via email over the past few days, and I trust you're all doing well. I will do my best to send confirmation emails--however, if you definitely want an email showing that I received it, be sure to send to both rkrut@writing.ucsb.edu and robert.krut@gmail.com . Remember, it is essential that I get your paper today!

How the Independent Workshop Will Work *UPDATED*
As discussed in class, your workshop for the third paper will be an "Independent" one. Select a time with your teammates (given in class on Tuesday) to meet and complete the workshop. The workshop sheet can be found here: http://www.writing.ucsb.edu/faculty/rkrut/winter%20LIT%20wksop.doc . Print it out and bring it with you.
Complete the workshop as we do in class, using the sheet as your guide. Then, use your teammates' comments to help revise the paper. If, for some reason, one of your team members does not attend the workshop, please email me immediately.
Once you have your final draft ready to go, email it to me. (Please remember that the due date is Wed, 3/21 at 9:00 am--for me to receive it). I will send a confirmation within 24 hours of getting your paper. To be safe, please email it to two addresses--my regular school one, and a "Back-Up" address. This way, there's no way for email problems. As you know, my school email is rkrut@writing.ucsb.edu ....the backup email is robert.krut@gmail.com .
As always, please email me with any questions at all.

Research for the Third Paper
As you know, you have to have at least one source for your third paper. To find credible research on literature, please visit this site: http://www.library.ucsb.edu/subjects/english/engl.html . It will lead you through the library's databases, and take you to credible research. Like the last paper, please do not use wikipedia, about.com, etc. Anything you get from this library site will be credible...

Important Information About the Paper...
Hi Everyone--
I hope you're having a nice weekend. I've heard from a number of you with questions and rough drafts--thanks for sharing. Remember, I am always available to assist you like this--please don't hesitate to contact me. As the paper is due in our next class, here are some important points to remember.
1. On Tuesday, you will turn in the Final Draft stapled together, and then, separately, all of the pre-work stapled together.
2. There is an "extra credit" option as well. If you are done with your paper by Monday at 9 am, you can email it to me (as a .doc or .rtf file), and you will receive extra credit. Then, in class on Tuesday, you just have to give me the pre-work. If you turn in your paper early via email, you will receive your grade via email, as well (before Tuesday's class, even).
3. I would like to draw your attention again to this link: http://library.osu.edu/sites/guides/chicagogd.php . This is a great resource for understanding how to use Chicago style, and has details on how to cite within the text, and on the References page. Hope it helps!
4. Don't forget that you can always email me with any questions.
Best of luck finishing the paper!
