richardisawriter — Thu, 27 May 2010 15:51:48 +0000

In my final project, I have accomplished making up topics to bring my story to life and show people how they use their imagination to see what they life want to be. I really accomplished that step because it’s all about give the best you have and never be afraid of your ideas. I have also accomplished thinking about the lessons of my story and show people what the lessons they may learn in their lives. I really accomplished that step because it’s all about taking you time and think about what theme can back up the whole moral of your story. The last accomplishment I did was creating my own Narrative Arc. This chart helps me to get organize my story of what going to happen if the story is a sad one or a happy one. I really accomplished that step because it’s all about making things in order and getting the story done the right way. And also making your organize to make you story sense. I learned so many thing such as making your poem to sound like music, taking your words from the picture and let it make a strong and beautiful poem and also organize your story to see what happens next to scene. I really this course because it helped me bring back the creative person I was a long time. And now, I can make so many stories and maybe put it like an artwork or write like it was my lyrics in music.

Reflecting on Feedback

The feedback from my classmates were very helpful to me because they saw how my story bring things to life and also bring their ideas to show a little bit more to my story. Writing down your feedbacks is a way to sucess your future in writing because it helps you to know what needs to be change and reading the story over and over again to make the story perfect and right. I feel like giving people feedback is only the way to accomplish anything such as writing, math, science and reading can help give people a little push to sucess and all the other great accomplishment you can do. My classmate wrote a feedback saying, “I enjoyed the second paragraph, it had imagery in it. I could visualize Adon and Sagat walikng around the kingdom talking. It was very brief, but I could understand the moral of his story. I also liked the moral of his story, because friendship is important. I like the feedback that person wrote because it help me to keep on doing what I have been doing for all my life and I will keep pushing myself of being creative and understandable.

Final Project Proposal

richardisawriter — Tue, 18 May 2010 17:37:42 +0000

I choose the short story assignment because creating short stories is what I do best. And I also have very creative ideas to make a graet story, so that everyone can enjoy them. I have a packet that can help me on organizing my thoughts of creating a short story. I really like the idea of making a chart that help you make a beginning, middle, and end. It’s helpful because it gives you the steps of breaking down your story if the story is a happy one or a unhappy one. The summary of my story is about Sagat saw his best friend Adon and welcoming him back to Costa Rico. They both went to the training room and practice a battle against each. Adon was sad because his mother died. Adon wanted revenge on Seth the commander and cheif of the Evil Empire Headquarter. Adon and Sagat wanted to destroy Seth and the headquarter.

My Fairy Tale Proposal

richardisawriter — Tue, 04 May 2010 18:22:52 +0000

My story will be about a king named Sagat and he is the king of Costa Rico and he has a evil brother named The Dictator. Sagat was a graet king because he was good to the people and wanted to do more like helping out and fighting crime to save his people. He took about 4- years off of training to become a professional kickboxer and ask his brother to be king whlie Sagat was gone. His brother did horrible things to the kingdom and the people because he really didn’t care of what’s going on or helping other people. When Sagat came back, he saw what happen and challenge his brother to a fight and Sagat wins the battle and killed his own flesh and blood The Dictator. My monster is a evil, careless and terrible monster that doesn’t care about the people that needed his help. I still need to figure out about why would Sagat’s brother would do so much bad things to the kingdom and the people.

Reflecting on My Found Poem

I think that the found poem exercise was great because it helps your mind find the words to fit your title of the poem. At first, I thought that it would be hard because it was difficult to find the words to my poem. And also we get the words from magazines and try to make the poem have feeling to the mood. I think this exercise can be helpful to other writers and to other people because it gives you the opportunity to let your mind do the work and let the words speaks out to the world and the people’s lives.

Reflecting on My Non-Scenes Poem

richardisawriter — Sun, 18 Apr 2010 14:57:31 +0000

I reaaly like my non-scenes poem because it gives you the ability to let your minds create a rythm of your poem. I believe that my poem speaks out to anyone who believe in blessings and life that no matter what the bad things you did in your life, God can remake you and give you the second chance to live right and to find the right woman or man that you want to be with for the rest of your life. I think this assignment is really going to help the writers to improve their writing skills because this gives them the opportunity to let their minds go with flow and follow the rythm of using vocabulary words to the poem.

Reflecting on the Second Draft of my Short-Short Story

richardisawriter — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 14:10:26 +0000

On my second draft, I can make my composition long enough because I want the story to become more interesting and long enough to add more details of the story. I also want to work on using evocative and robust words frequently because I want to words that I never even use before and finding out of what the words mean to make sence of my story. I also want to work on my ideas original and interesting and challenge the reader to think in new ways because I want the reader to focus on the story more and give their opinion to and to realize of what the story is showing about the person’s actions towards life.

Reflecting on the First Draft of My Short-Short Story

richardisawriter — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 15:46:56 +0000

I really like my first draft of my short short story because it helps to understand the reality of the world and showing the person’s feelings about himself and how his life and his mother and his career means the whole world to him. Writing without worry about how it is was pretty difficult because it’s hard to think very quickly to know what you’re writing about. Sometimes, it can be easy for some people that know the process of writing a short short story.

My Goal For This Class

richardisawriter — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 19:42:26 +0000

My goals for this class is to improve my writing when I’m writing a essay or a creative story because I want other people to understand my stories and my essays, so that I can become a graet writer in the future to write all my music. I also want to have a creative mind of writing when I have a project to work on because I want to have a interesting stories or a paper to do so that I can brainstorm my ideas and just let my mind do all the work for me.
