Due Mon., Apr. 5 by 7am
Work on There There essay
Step 2 expectations by Sunday morning: Have at least 6 quotes from at least 3 sources and at least 8 quotes from There There. Be sure to highlight the quotes from the sources. Personality trait quotes in yellow, dysfunctional personality trait quotes in green (if you could find some), other quotes in different (light colored) highlighting per article. Be sure to include something identifying the source and the URL (for later use). For the There There quotes, please include a teensy bit of context (if needed) but don't bother with analysis. Students have begun to write full paragraphs. I don't want to see that. If you don't want to delete a paragraph, cut and paste it to another document and then delete it. The paper I'm looking for will be just a series of quotes and source info.
It is time to tighten your focus to one personality trait. However, if two work great, you may continue with both. Remember that you will ultimately end up with at least 25 quotes, so if you have more than the requisite number at this point, that's great. You also don't have to have There There quotes for every source quote. Sometimes writers abandon a path that does not inspire them. Even abandoned quotes count toward the 25.
This paper might be worth more than 5 points. I haven't decided, yet.

I want to see several quotes from personality traits -- Click here. Highlight these quotes in yellow.
Under each of those quotes, there should be quotes from the book, with a teensy bit of context. Skip the analysis for now. Do not write paragraphs, yet.
You should be reading the "Strengths" and "Weaknesses" and other extras this site provides as well for source quotes.
What you should have by now: Provide at least one quote from each of the two personality traits you've selected and at least 4 quotes total from the novel.
Next step: Provide at least two quotes from the personality disorder source or sources if you can.
For Yvette Brazier -- Click here; For Elizabeth Hanes, click here
If you cannot find a disorder that works for you character, search personality traits; eg. the drawbacks of extreme shyness, benefits of a temper, how disfigurement causes emotional distress, pitfalls and perks of being raised by a non-parent family member, etc. Psychology Today is prolific with articles but there are other sources that can be good, too.
Ultimately, you will need at least three sources for this paper. Your works cited page will have at least four entries since There There will be among them.
You should have at least 25 quotes before you being writing this essay. Each different source should be highlighted in a different color.
