Writing Workshop Lesson 15
Title: Joseph of Genesis
Nutshell Summary: The story of how Joseph trusts God through his trials.
Hook: Joseph is Jacob’s favorite son and he gives him a coat of many colors.
Problem (first “down”): Joseph’s brothers were jealous of him and they sold him to a passing caravan, who later on sells him to the Egyptians.
Up: Potiphar makes Joseph the overseer of the house.
Down: Potiphar’s wife tells a lie about Joseph and he is thrown in the prison.
Up: Even though Joseph is one of the prisoners, he is given charge over all the other prisoners.
Down: The chief butler forgets to tell Pharaoh about Joseph.
Up: Pharaoh has a dream and the chief butler remembers how Joseph interpreted it and Joseph is let out of prison.
Down: There is a famine in the land.
Up: Joseph is put in charge of all the food.
CLIMAX (darkest moment): Joseph tells his brothers that they are spies and he is going to keep them all in prison.
Resolution: Joseph’s brothers return with Benjamin.
Satisfying Ending: Joseph’s family comes to live in Egypt for the rest of the famine. |

Jan. 10, 2008 - Well done!
That wasn't so bad, was it? In fact, now that you have conquered this (hard) lesson, I hope you found it kind of fun. Next time you read a book, think about the ups and downs the authors used. I guess the whole point of these writing lessons is to help you "Read with Author Eyes." When you do that, you will know what a good book is made of and you can imitate the techniques used and create your own stories to delight and entertain (and encourage) readers.
One more lesson! I guess I'd better start working on that certificate. :-)
