Still Waters Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 In an attempt to make this little treasure a bit more user-friendly, and as a preemptive measure against my ds using the book’s miniscule type-face as an excuse for “missing†assignments (*sigh*- if only he’d use his powers for good), I am in the process of creating a workbook of sorts for Payne’s The Lively Art of Writing, and I thought I’d offer to share. I’m about halfway done. (through chapter 7 of 15) I’m not sure when I’ll have a chance to complete it, but I’m hoping to take some time in August to finish it up. It’s nothing fancy. For each chapter, I typed up the chapter summary so ds can keep it in the writing section of his binder. Then there is a page(s) for the chapter questions, with lines for answering them. Next there is a page of chapter assignments. This is mostly a checklist, with the assignments listed and checkboxes to be ticked off as they are finished. Finally, there is a page(s) for the chapter vocabulary with space to do the vocabulary work. It’s done in Word, 47 pages, 52 kb, so far. If anyone would like a copy, just pm me your email addy, and I’ll be happy to send part 1 along. Please be forgiving of any typos, mistakes, and “un-pretty†formatting, and feel free to edit as you wish. I will try to remember to post when I finish part 2. Though I am a perpetual and habitual (and possibly hopeless) lurker, I have gleaned a great amount of wisdom from these boards, and I hope I can give back in a way, small such as it is.

mjbucks1 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 I am glad to share what StillWaters started. This board has been so valuable to me. I am glad to "give back"!!! The answer key may not be perfect (as the answers are what I thought was correct!), so take it for what it is worth. My in-box filled to capacity very quickly. I have sent everyone the workbook and answers who requested it (except two of you forgot to send me your e-mail, but I replied to you requesting your e-mail address). So if there is anyone else that could not get a message through because of my full in-box, it is now cleared. Blessings, Michelle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still Waters Posted May 16, 2012 Author Share Posted May 16, 2012 Hello everyone! My apologies. Due to a chaotic year I haven’t been here in quite a while, but I’m getting flooded with emails telling me my PM box is full, so I figured I should check it out. I’ve got several requests for the workbook, which I unfortunately never got a chance to finish (turns out this wonderful little book just didn’t work with my highly visual son.) But I see that mjbucks1 has created the second half and an answer key (thank you so much Michelle, I’ve been meaning to go ahead and finish it, even though I couldn’t use it with my son, but just haven’t been able to find the time.) Anyway, all this rambling to say that to make it easier for everyone to get the files, I created a Yahoo group and uploaded it there. It’s an open group set to announcements only (so no need for approval to join and there will be no messages posted.) I hope I did everything right (it's my first group so I'm winging it:D.) Here’s the link: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/LivelyArtOfWritingWorkbook/ Michelle, if you want me to add your files to the group, send me a PM and let me know (after I empty my box.) Again, I apologize for not answering you all. I’ve not been ignoring you, just haven’t been around. Hopefully the Yahoo group makes it easier to get the file to you all! Blessings everyone! :001_smile: Let me know if there are any problems. Rhonda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still Waters Posted May 16, 2012 Author Share Posted May 16, 2012 Oh, and can someone please post and let me know if they were able to get on the group and access the file okay. (I have internet insecurities;)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
