Spooky Irish Ghost Stories. I have always been a fan of the supernatural and horror stories, so this story drew my attention right away. I loved the pictures that were used in each of the stories. I liked the layout. It was just overall a very good project. There were minor grammatical error, but I looked past them. I liked the suspense in the introduction and how it made you want to continue reading. I liked the line, “I swear on my favorite toys this is true.” Johnny’s Tale was comical and entertaining. 



Ghostly Stories. This story was unique. I liked how he included Oklahoma in his project and that he was the tour guide in the story. The creativity was just amazing. There is a story called Skirvin Hotel caught my eye because I have recently attended a wedding there. I was very interested to see what this story was about. There were a lot of facts about the Skirvin Hotel that I did not know about. I did not realize how old this building was or how many rooms it had. I knew that is was beautiful and had great décor inside. The whole story reminded me of The Shining. I can only imagine if that were to happen how many ghost tours would go through the hotel.

Goddesses of Greece. I saw Greece in the title and I could not click on it faster. I took a Greek Mythology class a semester or two ago and absolutely loved it. I loved the stories and the creativity that came with it. I enjoyed reading the story of Aphrodite. It was interesting that the person used it to defend Aphrodite and her perspective of the affair. It was very dramatic and perfect for this project. It is a topic that I would enjoy writing about and it did not bore me.

Back up and Review

Reality This week has been tough for me with work and my school load. I am working on managing my time more effectively. I am going to get caught up with everything soon. I have group projects in all my classes except this one. It can just be challenging to find the time. My favorite graphic is the girl running away from the ghost with “reality” written on it. She is running into a book, which sums up my life in so many ways. I love reading to get out of my own head. It is a chance to explore another world and feel emotions that the characters are feeling. It is nice to escape responsibilities sometimes. Taking a bath and reading is my favorite thing to do. Failing Superman was the most interesting video I found. I am a little on the nerdy side, so using superheroes to explain information about different people and what others are capable of. It talks about asking everyone to do the same task when everyone has a different set of skills.

All the Assignments...

I am intrigued by the stories we get to write about. I love reading stories from different parts of the world. I am very excited for the extra credit and I know making time for the extra credit is difficult, but worth it. I love when a professor takes the time to set up their class in such a unique way. It really shows that they love what they do and I cannot be more appreciative. I am ready to give this class my full attention. Too Tired to Function

Week 8 Reading and Writing

I think that the Laos stories were my favorite. All of the stories involved animals or people and taught you lessons. Each short story made an impact on the reader. I also believe that I could try harder when it comes to the stories and reading notes. I could try different reading and writing strategies. I have not done creative writing other than for this class in a very long time. Business writing has been at the forefront of my mind. Short, sweet, and to the point has been my strategy. Because there are so many choices and venues I could take with my writing, it can make it difficult to start each story. Starting is the hardest part. Reading and Writing
