It is the job of every good writer to create vivid experiences, first in
his own mind, and then to transmit them, via specific
details--particularities--to the minds of his readers. Throughout the
2015-2016 school year, students in Mr. Horton's eighth grade English
class worked to do just that. This collection comprises samples of their
work. Some pieces were written as part of in-class assignments. Others
were written independent of class. Regardless, the experiences they
transmit are as unique as the authors who created them.
