This is my final blog post for my short story, The Whispers, They Scream. In this blog post, I will be reflecting on my short story and it’s writing process to hopefully learn and improve form the experience. One challenge I overcame during my story project was finding and understanding […]
A. What challenges did you overcome throughout this story project? How did you go about overcoming these challenges? One challenge I faced was balancing historical accuracy with creative storytelling. Since the story takes place on the Titanic, I needed to make sure the events matched real history while still creating […]
Ethan lived an ordinary life in the modern world. One evening, while crossing a busy street, he was hit by a car and lost consciousness. When he woke up, he was no longer in a hospital. Instead, he found himself in a small cabin on a large ship. Confused, he […]
The climax of the narrative occurs when the Titanic receives iceberg warnings and begins to enter a critical phase where survival becomes uncertain. Historically, the Sinking of the RMS Titanic was preceded by multiple iceberg warnings that were not fully acted upon, partly due to overconfidence in the ship’s safety and limitations […]
In my fourth blog post for my short story, ‘The Whispers, They Scream’, I will be doing some more research to back up the second half of my plot outline, the ‘climax’, ‘falling action’, ‘resolution’. In this post I will research mainly how people stuggle to talk to their loved […]
Time-travel fiction often explores how individuals react when they possess knowledge of future disasters and the ability to influence history before tragedy occurs. In this story, the protagonist begins as an ordinary person living in the modern world until an accident causes him to lose consciousness. When he awakens, he […]
ExpositionThe protagonist lives in the modern world until an accident causes him to lose consciousness. When he wakes up, he finds himself aboard the RMS Titanic in 1912. He gradually confirms the time and location, and realizes he knows the ship will sink the next day, along with the fate […]
For my second project, I again chose storytelling. This is not only a personal hobby, but also a responsibility we all have to society. Written records document the transmission of human civilization, are the crystallization of human wisdom, the life experiences of our ancestors, and are a treasure trove we […]

a. What challenges did you overcome throughout this story project? How did you go about overcoming these challenges? One of the main challenges I faced during this project was transforming a complicated historical conflict into a symbolic story that uses animals instead of humans. The real events behind the conflict […]

Your biggest obstacles are often the ones you create yourself. Waking up in the mornings can be tough. Some days, your body wants to sink into the warm covers and never leave. However, responsibilities and tasks loom over your head while you get ready for the day, like a dark, […]
This is a draft story. When we live, we perform. In Blancheur, truth is a document. Folded. Filed. Stamped. Put away. If it’s ugly, we call it “complicated” so it sounds less like someone lied. In Arenthe, truth is water. And water can be made to look clear even when […]

Hello again, my name is Jennah (once again), and this is my fourth blog post! This blog post will be very similar to my last one, other than the fact that I will be covering the second half of my story. This blog post will include the research I did […]
When I wrote my story about the squirrel being chased out of the forest and returning with hatred, I realized that it wasn’t just a fable about “revenge.” It was really my way of thinking about how prejudice grows and becomes powerful. In real conflicts, people often begin to dehumanize each […]

When I wrote the story of the squirrel that is forced to flee and then returns centuries later to exact revenge, I was really thinking about how deep wounds from displacement persist in real conflicts. In my mind, that squirrel’s journey represents communities that are driven out of their homes and carry […]
My story outille in point form: Beginning: Middle: End: 2-year jump. 13-year jump. THE END!
Exposition:The story is about my family and I moving from Lima, Peru, to Iquique, Chile. It wasn’t my first time moving, but this time I understood where I was going. I was moving with my parents, but not with my two dogs; I could only take Pluto, so I left […]
by Jennah brar When you first think of or mention cheerleading, you might think of pom-poms and a group of girls on a field cheering on a football team or basketball game. Some might say that that’s the only way to cheer, or that it’s only a hobby; nobody considers […]
Waking up in the mornings can be tough; some days, your body wants to sink into the warm covers and never leave. However, responsibilities and tasks loom over your head while you wake up and get ready for the day, like a dark, stormy cloud that’s raining on your field […]
The fond memories of my childhood seem like they were yesterday, those nostalgic moments when time seemed to move more slowly. At that time, the world was as big as each person’s imagination. I remember the times I spent with family and friends, the laughter that was endless and without […]
Many things are happening in today’s society. Some are good some are bad. Through this project, I hope to inspire people to reflect on society through stories and make them appreciate the peaceful life they live today. At the same time, I also want readers to understand that peace is […]
Blog post #4 for a story is the same as #3. Again, because what I’m writing is more of a personal essay than a fictional story with a clear plot line, Instead of studying how my story applies to a standard narrative (which would be difficult, because it doesn’t) I’ll […]
Hey guys! I’ll be putting a twist on my 3rd post because what I’m writing is more of a personal essay than a fictional story with a clear plot line. Instead of studying how my story applies to a standard narrative (which would be difficult, because it doesn’t) I’ll be […]

Everyone knows what grief feels like if you lose a deeply loved one, but no one talks about grief for a stranger – especially if that person was your grandfather. Hey guys! This is the first post of my second topic this year. This time I’ll also be writing a […]
Ah, loneliness. A quintessential part of any high school experience. To feel like a star in the cosmos, like you could vanish and the earth, nay, the universe will continue to spin on, oblivious to your presence and absence. I plan to write a story about this very topic, because […]

Hey! Welcome to my story! Dear Laura, My parents were bringing me back to Canada for around two months. In their words, it was called “reconnecting with my culture” – but I never knew much of Canada at all. I didn’t even know Canada existed as a country until a […]

Hi everyone! My blog post may be a little jumpy, as one needs to know a little about a lot for my story. My story features landscapes in the subconsciousness, inspired by inside out(1). The mental figures and spaces, however, do not represent emotions, but parts of the brain. Two […]
