If you have completed the first two posts on time, you may substitute your presentation proposal for a third blog posting.  If you haven't completed the first two posts, you must complete a third blog posting.  

I will be evaluating the blog discussions as a process - they were designed to help you to discuss the novel with your group members in an alternate forum.  They should have helped you to think about your second group novel in preparation for your formal essay on it (in which you are comparing your first and second group novels).

If you are completing a third blog post ...  follow the instructions for the first two posts.

Your essay will not be considered complete until you have participated in the blog process with three entries and three responses (unless you have been exempted).
