1. Complete conference worksheet for drafts of genre pieces (1 sheet serves for entire set of drafts)
2. Submit research notes and cover sheet (if you have not already done so).
3. Complete draft of critical review. You have 2 choices in researching and organizing your critical review: (a) compare what various reviewers have said about your book. Include your own opinion and provide evidence from the text to support it. (Editorial reviews on Amazon.com are a good starting place for this). (b) compare how different sources have interpreted a person or event. For example, a Barry Bonds fan site might have a very different interpretation of his 73 home run season than a magazine article on steroid abuse among professional athletes. The aim of this style of review is to dig up something controversial about your subject and discuss the different opinions about it.
