I'm currently enrolled in an online creative writing class through the college DH works for. I, along with tree others are supposed to each be giving a lecture on a topic followed by leading a discussion on the topic and how it relates to the stories the class is reading.

I have been asked to lecture on past vs present in fiction writing. I'm trying to do some research so I don't totally sound like a babbling idiot but am not getting too far. I'm nervous enough about this as it is; this is a senior class and techinally I'm a freshman but I wanted a challenge when I asked to take the class.

Does anyone have a good site or article they could point me to?

I know there are any number of books on the subject, but let me poke around on-line and see what I can dig up. What's your deadline?

I've been assigned next week but she hasn't given us a deadline yet. I'd like to have something to post by next Wednesday @ the latest. If possible I would like to run a draft past my teacher early next week incase she sees any changes that I need to make. Thanks a lot.
