JOURNAL TOPIC: [today's tunes: "Lo Que Dice" by Ozomatli; "Words (Between the Lines of Age)" by Neil Young]
Adults say it to toddlers all the time: "Use your words." What do you mean, my
words? We know that fiction authors use dialogue for the purpose of
indirect characterization-- as you write the story of your life each
day, how do the words you choose create an impression of who you are?
-OR-
Choose your own topic.
