Blog 37 - Wednesday, February 25, 2015

Your FINAL BLOG topic this week is FREE CHOICE!  You could blog about whatever it is you want, except what you've already blogged about!  You could go on a rant or you could simply blog about something important to you. Please do not blog about blogs!

I highly recommend that you go OUTSIDE the BOX! Be creative and write about something you feel important or something you would like to tell your audience.

You must remember your audience.  It is not simply me (Mr. Katz) reading this blog!  

If you will be ranting about a certain individual, you need to leave their name out of this.  You could give them a pseudonym or simply leave their name as anonymous.

Make sure your language is appropriate.  Do not go on swearing tangents.

Have a GREAT SPRING BREAK!
