In your first "long" essay, you will write a creative nonfiction piece depicting a particular place and time that holds special meaning for you. This can be a home, a park, school, party, hotel, shop, etc set during a specific time in your life. The focus is on place and time, but you should also try to incorporate what you practiced in the earlier assignments: description,dialogue, narration, and pacing.
Since this is a longer assignment than the technique assignments you have done, you won't be able to rely merely on describing the time and scene. You will find it necessary to insertdialogueto give depth and feeling to people in your essay and to balance the pace of your narration with layers of description.
