Our final class was this week!
It's been quite a run this semester, but all good things come to an end.
In the next few days, I'll get any final notes to you individually as well as info about your grade.
As always, questions are welcome. Send me an e-mail at jeffrapsis@gmail.com or call me at (603) 236-9237.
Thank you so much for choosing this course and spending your Monday evenings with me since before Labor Day.
I hope we've all gained a better understanding of the role that clear thinking and writing will play in our lives and careers, even as how we communicate will continue to evolve and change.
Whatever happens, organizing your thoughts and then finding the best way to record and communicate them will remain a key skill as long as we continue to use language.
Thanks also for sharing so much of yourself in the various writing assignments we've tackled together.
For me, it's time well spent, as I find I learn more from you than you could ever learn from me. Really!
I also want to thank Erika Cohen and Matt Mowry of Business NH magazine for bringing the "Young Reporters Project" to our class.
Their input was valuable and also refreshing. Hey, even I get sick of hearing myself talk!
Thanks also to Ellen Ruggles and Jeff Klenotic of UNH-Manchester for their behind-the-scenes support of our class.
Now, as a final sign-off, here are the edited horoscopes that will appear in print in the Seacoast Scene edition of Thursday, Dec. 22.
These will be printed in a newspaper that circulates throughout the New Hampshire seacoast.
Let me know if you want a copy. Or you can check it out online at www.seacoastscene.net.
You created all of these for that last assignment. Nice work—even if some of them are a little disturbing. :)
Horoscopes for Seacoast Scene Dec. 22

With help from students in Media Writing course this semester at UNH-Manchester
• Aries (March 21-April 19): Today you'll find yourself lost in your thoughts, which is amazing because there are so few of them.
• Taurus (April 20-May 20): You will run over someone special this week.
• Gemini (May 21-June 20): You will soon make a lot of money. Unfortunately, it will be in the form of severance pay.
• Cancer (June 21-July 22): This will be a long week filled with joy and happiness, minus the joy and happiness.
• Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Reach for the stars. Or in your case, it's more realistic to reach for another bag of chips.
• Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): When life gives you lemons, then make lemonade. Too bad you can't stand lemonade.
• Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You are a person filled with inspiration. Wait, that damned autocorrect—I meant perspiration.
• Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Avoid friends who bring negativity into your life. Not a biggie for you due to complete lack of friends.
• Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You'll soon double your inner strength. Unfortunately, life is about to get three times harder.
• Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Your partner has some big news today. I said big news, not good news.
• Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Like a flower, you possess great beauty. Also like a flower, you lack a brain.
• Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Your spouse will make your favorite meal today. Unfortunately, it will be for someone else.
Thanks again, have a great holiday season, keep in touch, and hope to see you around the school and beyond!
All the best,
