Exercise: Not so Free-for-All
These exercises were written
by IWW members
and administrators to provide structured practice opportunities for its
members.
You are welcome to use them for practice as well. Please mention that
you found
them at the Internet Writers Workshop
(http://www.internetwritingwor
kshop.org/).

----------------
Exercise: Choose one of the nearly two hundred past workshop exercises.
Follow the
instructions precisely, including word count. Give your readers a
brief
description of the
exercise you're working on, and copy
and paste the Web address of that exercise
into your submission.

Many of the past free-for-all exercises have allowed members to alter
the
requirements of the exercise they choose, or to make up an exercise for
themselves.
The rule this time is more strict--pick an exercise that's been posted
and do it as if it
were this week's exercise for the whole group. In other words, meet the
requirements for the exercise you choose, whatever they may be.
A list of exercises by topic is available on the IWW website:
http://www.internetwritingworkshop.org/pwarchive/topics.shtml
You can give your readers the location of the exercise you do by
copying the address
from the browser bar at the top of the exercise page.

your sub the

Critiquing suggestions:
Has the writer met the requirements of the chosen exercise?
If so, point out areas
that support this. If not, why not? Offer suggestions
as to how the exercise
requirements could be met, perhaps a bit of tweaking here,
a bit of additional
material there.
