Good Morning and Happy Friday everyone! Please click on the LINK to read through some tips and suggestions for writing narrative essays. You should look at these guiding questions again if you are still struggling to find a topic. Remember, you should choose one specific event or moment to describe. (Ex. “My Trip to Japan” is too general for this essay assignment…instead consider “Adventure in a Tokyo Public Toilet”…now that’s more focused!
