Mystery Story Format Requirements

It is very important to format your story correctly. Below are the requirements for formatting your story. We discussed these in detail in class. Be sure to follow!

  • Proper English Heading (Name, Oliveira, Date, Period ____, Title) in MLA format. The title should be your own creative title. 
  • Font should be size 12, Times New Roman or Arial, and black ink. Do not ask if you can do anything else...the answer will be no. : )
  • Indent new paragraphs, but do not skip entire line between paragraphs. 
  • Double Space your story (we did this together in class on Thursday)
  • Do not put "The End" at the end of your story. If you are ending with a cliff hanger, you are allowed to put "To be continued..." in the proper font. 

We will do some peer editing tomorrow in class. Monday, we will print stories in the computer lab if you need to do so. Tuesday we will have peer evaluations and final changes. 
The final story is due on Wednesday, 10/28/15.
