Things I Hate...

[avari_maethor]

My job, my job, my job and oh, did I mention my job? If I didn't make $20/hr. I would have quit already but alas, I'm using that money to pay off my student loans so I can't. I certainly wouldn't get paid nearly as well at another job and this looks good on my resume. But I still hate it. I'm counting down the days until spring break and when

This may sound stupid, but....

Have you tried introducing them to the joys of FAN FICTION WRITING?
LOL
The possibilities of fame, and new world-wide friends may be just the jump-start that would get them....well maybe some of them going.

There is always reverse psych. Make them do everything BUT write: bring in pictures, articles, and other things to show and tell about, hopefully till they get sick of being OPENLY treated like kindergarteners!

p.s. You could always get a few tips from a kindergarten teacher! (double LOL!)

One class is paired up to write a 5000 word story. They complain.
