Journal #6
What are the conflicts in the book so far? What do you think is Lakshmi’s biggest problem? Why? As you write, please use specific examples from the book.

Journal #7
Seven days ago, __________________________________. Now, no one will talk to me.
Fill in the blank and then expand this idea to explain both what happened and how the character feels about this reaction. Does he/she think it is fair? Does s/he feel badly for what happened? Get us into the mind of that character.

Journal #8
Imagine Lakshmi after the story ends. Based on what you know about her character and circumstances, write a new ending to the book a year after she leaves the brothel. You may write in the same form as the book or choose a different style. However, write in her voice.
