A writing prompt for the RWS 305W profile; part photo essay, part internet curation, part storytelling, this project requires you to follow your curiosity and introduce us to a unique topic as seen through eyes of you — the writer.
For this assignment you should select a person, group of people, issue or a place to write about. The point of this assignment is to bring that subject to life through writing and the use of photos so that you can learn more about the subject while helping readers to see and understand what makes the subject interesting.
The subject you choose may teach you something about yourself; you may be able to explore and clarify why this person or place had an influence on your life and the culture around you. Your call to write can grow from your readers’ need to know or your own.

this is how the professor will be grading us:
-Person, place, event, phenomenon, or specific issue or idea I will explore in my Profile; does this topic connect to a larger social issue or current context?
-Traditional perspectives on this topic (list specific positions taken) and preview of what makes your approach and perspective unique.
-Identify what sources (including quoted voices) you will curate and include; how will you bring readers into an understanding of your topic; what dominant impression do you hope to experience and reveal in your Wakelet Profile?
-Anecdote: write a vivid, developed story that introduces or illuminates your interest/relationship to your profile topic – use dialogue and description!
