For this assignment, you are required to submit one document which includes:
▪ an academic integrity statement after the heading (The heading includes your name, professor’s name, course and section number and date of submission) 
▪ a writing log after the academic integrity statement 
▪ the title of your essay 
▪ opening paragraphs (introduction paragraphs) if you want. I say this because some writers prefer to beginning from the introductory paragraphs. Other writers prefer to begin with the body paragraphs and then they draft the opening paragraphs. Do what best helps you to create a strong essay.
▪ the thesis statement at the end of the opening paragraph if you submit your opening paragraph. If you have no opening paragraph, please at least submit a thesis statement at the beginning of your essay. Write down Thesis Statement and this will let me know this is the possible main idea you are working towards.
▪ as many body paragraphs as you wish to write. Or, your draft can just be body paragraphs only. I fully understand writers oftentimes will want to just begin with the body paragraphs.
▪ the word count stated at the beginning of the essay. The word count should not include the heading or works cited page. 
▪ a works cited page on a separate page
▪ a general outline on a separate page
From the short stories listed below, choose the one that speaks to you the most, read it and annotate it. Share your thoughts about its deeper meaning.
