Week 6

This week I'll be taking a small glimpse into the life of Oscar Wilde as per my proposal.

I really enjoyed the thought and writing process that went into this weeks short story, and  it didn't take as long as I thought it would to pen down, but at the same time I feel slightly  apprehensive about the product. I tried to create something slightly delightful keeping things light with Snows inner dialogue.

It's a modern take on the Snow White fairy tale but it still maintains the tradition of girl meets Prince charming with those modern elements. I have a 9 year old niece who is an AMAZING writer. Her stories are comedic, some are dark, and a couple have such strong opening paragraphs that at times it's hard to believe that a 9 year old child possesses an amazingly articulate vocabulary. She is the inspiration and main drive behind this particular story. A true believer in love at first sight, this is for her. I hope I've done it some small justice, and I am really anticipating constructive feedback from other members in the forum.


Looking forward to week 7's installment.

Week 5

Week 5, the beginning of my digital asset proposal. I thought I would start off with the rather uncomplicated task of doing a brief definition of the following genres that I will be featuring in my short stories

  • Comedy
  • Drama
  • Horror
  • Romance
  • Fantasy
  • Periodical
I have also managed to post a short summary of the short story for week 6, as well as a draft.


For week 6 I'll be writing a short story named Snow, and for the most part it's a parody on fairy tales.
