Read: Quade's "The Season of the Skulls" (Links to an external site.)
Write a creative response in which you write a creative nonfiction story from your own childhood, detailing an experience that you feel is entirely unique to yourself. For Quade, it was collecting kangaroo skulls for her father's archaeological work. Maybe for you, it was something a little less grotesque. But write the story, or the anecdote, >200 words. For this assignment, the story should stand on its own.
