Write your own stream of consciousness story of 500 words or
more. Try to use some of the narrative techniques that you saw in
the excerpts from A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and Mrs.
Dalloway. For example, think about how you can use punctuation
to set off a character’s thoughts from the narrator’s voice or to
show how a character’s thoughts change.
Use the following guidelines to write your narrative:
• Your narrative should have a third-person narrator, a central
character, and possibly other characters.
• The narrative should reveal something about the central
character (and perhaps other characters).
• Spend time planning the underlying “story” before you
actually start writing
• The events in the narrative should be clear to readers.
Try to make your narrative detailed and realistic
