It is a truth universally acknowledged...
That any good scholar or writer in position to say something, must be in want of practice. That's what this page is for! Each prompt, based on a sample allegory on the Allusions page, will give you the chance to practice either analyzing an allusion (with guiding questions) or creating your own similar to the one discussed (also with helpful guiding questions). These will be slightly different than what's already written for each sample allusion, so feel free to comment both there and here! Either way, answer in the comments section, or feel free to pose your own questions there. It's make your momma proud time!
