Week 8 Reading and Writing

 I enjoy reading new stories every week and practice my writing. I don't write creatively that often so this is a great way to practice that! Right now, I need to focus mostly on dialogue. 

So far I am happy with my website but not so much with my blog. I would like to make it look nicer (especially the image layout) but I am not sure how much creative freedom I have with that on this website. 

So far I am very satisfied with how my project is going! I am excited to add more stories to it in the future!

I would say my biggest accomplishments in this class is just writing more. Being in STEM, the only writings I have are either lab reports or research notes. Those aren't any fun and I cannot just write whatever I want. In this class I can write about whatever I want and that creative freedom is great!

So far I think my favorite story I've read was "Man in the Moon", specifically when I re-wrote the story in my own way.

I was born in   Pskov, Russia, and given to an orphanage with my twin sister. I currently have no idea who my birth parents are and why I was placed for adoption right after birth. I stayed in the orphanage for about a year or so until my sister and I were adopted into our current family. I am ...

Week 3 Story: The Wolf

Image
 It was the fifth day without of meal for Wolf. At this point it was getting ridiculous. He had never struggled to catch his prey before, but ever since he was kicked out of his pack, life has just been a battle for survival. Sure, he wasn’t the best hunter, but he could always rely on his pack mates. Now he has no one. No home. And most importantly no food. Wolf managed to find a hollowed out log the other day that he has been taking shelter in. Tomorrow will be better he thought. Wolf’s stomach growled violently as he struggled to fall asleep.  He awoke late in the day. No worries, he hunts best at dusk. Wolf slowly got up and let out a big yawn. It was time to find a meal. He knew of a farmstead close by but never approached it in the past. The pack was terrified of that place. There were these mutated wolves that guarded the tasty meals on legs. Many of his friends have been lost to those creatures. Normally it would be a suicide mission going alone, but he was desperate....
