Fear Essay Resources

Some students asked me to post a complete copy of all of the essay-writing resources we had in the lab today, so here we go. Click here to see the Essay Resources packet.

We will be in the library computer lab again tomorrow. The essay is due tomorrow - Tuesday, November 19, 2019 at 11:59pm. You must submit this essay to TurnItIn.com - I cannot accept emailed submissions. DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE TO UPLOAD IT. If it is turned in at 12:02am, it's late, and that's -20 points.

MLA Citations for Everything Else

Here are the MLA citations for "The Landlady" and "Why We Crave Horror Movies."



These look a little different because they are from a different source, not our textbook.

For MLA citations for "The Devil and Tom Walker," "Civil Disobedience," and "The Declaration of Independence" - these are from the textbook.

Look at the other MLA citations we did for Nature and Self Reliance and all the others. It'll look like that. Just put the author first and last, the name of the piece, then the name of the textbook and publisher, year of publication, then the page range of the piece you are citing.
