Here are some of my writing samples. The first three were written for my Creative Writing class last year. Sechura Desert / Lake La Niņa was written based on a picture from National Geographic of a desert in South America, flooded by La Niņa. The country (I think it was Argentina) was going to take advantage of the situation and stock it with fish for a temporary fish farm. Stolen Words was based on a prose paragraph, in which two children overhear an old women suggesting to their mother that the children be sold. Two Dads, a Melody, and a Day is the short story the class required. The idea of Jeremy being unable to write music paralleled my frustration at finding a suitable topic for my story! And like Jeremy, I wrote my creation all in a gust of momentum and inspiration. Pompeii dates from my freshman year in High School. I tried to use active verbs and aggressive adjectives whenever I could. |
Whaddaya think? Really, I accept all feedback, especially criticism!
