    • 3 Pages

Some of these stories I could not even believe them. They seem like things that could only happen in movies. Things like spies‚ people trying to escape the island‚ government oppression‚ poverty and people disappearing without a trace. I used to think these things only happened during the time my grandparents lived there‚ but I was wrong

Terrified‚ the blond haired Juliet sat in the corner of her darkened closet attempting to go unnoticed by the intruder stalking around her house. She sat there hugging her legs‚ praying that he wouldn’t hear her soft whimpers of fear. She listened quietly to the footsteps walking around her once safe

    Short story is fictional work of prose that is shorter in length than a novel. Edgar Allan Poe‚ in his essay "The Philosophy of Composition‚" said that a short story should be read in one sitting‚ anywhere from a half hour to two hours.

Because of the shorter length‚ a short story usually focuses on one plot‚ one main character (with a few additional minor characters)‚ and one central theme‚ whereas a novel can tackle multiple

    One topic Panttaja mentions is‚ “Indeed‚ Cinderella’s mother’s role is far from marginal: the words and actions of Cinderella’s mother are of vital importance”. Panttaja suggests that even though Cinderella’s mother is not a main character in the story‚ she is the reason Cinderella does end up having a happy ending. This part is overlooked when reading fairytales; Cinderella’s mother is the whole reason why she has to keep striving to achieve the happy ending. Even though Cinderella’s mother appears

Everyone opened their doors to the elderly woman but denied her a place to stay for the night. After having no success with the people of the villages she decided
