Our literature and storytelling during the 2021-2022 academic year is devoted to the Western genre. We have been reading a selection of novels in this genre and have also watched a few Western films.
Each semester, students are also writing their own Western story, as exemplified below. We invite you to read these stories and leave feedback in the comments section at the bottom of the page. Our mantra regarding feedback is that it needs to be “kind, specific, and helpful.” We are all growing as writers, so we take your critique to heart.
