Three sources for my paper.

1. In the Group Home: Disenfranchised Youth and the Creative Writing Workshop as Intervention
2. Theory, Culture, and Craft
3.“That’s My Boy”: Challenging the Myth of Literary Mentorship as In Loco Patris

All three sources are analyze about how creative writing class works. They are journals for people who don't know much about creative writing and the students who have interests but not decided if they want to study this major. These sources have good points, strong evidence and appropriate citations. So I think these sources could be academic sources to help my paper.

Way to use:
The first source focus on how creative writing class helps young writers, why this form of discussion works. The second source analyzed a great piece in France perspective as a writer. The third source is talking about why mentor in creative writing class is so important.
Based on these three sources, I'd like to write a paper from a new foreign student who really love writing but first know there's creative writing major exist in this world. And I actually want to interview Jianan Qian, who is come from China and just graduated from Iowa Writer's Workshop. In this paper, I may introduce workshop in creative writing class, show why and how this kind of discussion is helpful, what kind of roles both students and instructors play during the workshop. Also when I mentioned Jianan's experience, the second source must be very helpful, because my interviewee and this source are both understanding American literature as a foreigner.
