Story Lab Week 12

For week 12 I decided on completing a story lab. For this I decided to read C.S. Lewis's statement of Practice, Practice, Practice . In this article the author suggests a technique to better the readers writing skills. They suggest writing continually as well as you can. Whether it is a fun write or a meaningful write. That by doing this the writer becomes so much further on. I really found this interesting and meaningful because I struggle with writing and this is a possible activity that could improve my writing skills. This is a technique that I believe can help the majority of writes with sentence structure all the way to idea generation. (Image is of creativity in progress, Source: Pencil )

Reading Notes: Wolves

The story that I chose to read this week came from Aesop's Fables. This story was called Wolves . The section of the story that really interested me was the Wolf and the Lamb. In this section the Lamb and the wolf have a confrontation where the lamb stands up for himself saying that he did not stir up the wolfs drinking water. The wolf realizes his mistake and then tries to call the lamb out on something from six months before. But the lamb says this was not he that it was the ram, but still sore the wolf tore the lab apart. What I got from this story as that even when someone is in the right, there are nasty people out there that will make it their job ti ruin yours. (Image is of a lion and a lamb, Source: Lion )

Reading Notes: The Gods

The story that I am choosing for today's reading notes comes from Aesop’s Fables: The Gods. The poem that really caught my attention was TheCarter and Hercules . In the story fable teaches the wagon driver a lesson who learns that when gods help them, it helps themselves. This is an interesting take and is really something that the driver found out because now he probably has a totally different view of the Gods. (Image is of Hercules, Source: Hercules )
