Mice Tales has been the final step in creating the bond that the students of Fall, l989 semester writing workshop in Will Hochmans section. Together we learned to read our peers writing, critique it, accept criticism of others, and make that criticism work to our advantage. With the time that we have invested into the making of Mice Tales we took these skills and used them to a greater extent than NYUs expository writing program generally allows. We have taken these skills and applied them to the publication of a volume of our own material proving in effect how well we have mastered that which the Expository Writing Program tries to teach students.
