Em's Assignments

Inspirational Quote
I have never had a class to use a blog post. I like how this class has a fun, interactive, and creative way of learning and doing assignments. I also definitely appreciate that you can go your own pace as well! Personally, I am interested in the storytelling assignments, maybe not so much about writing my own but reading other creative ideas from my classmates! I am interested in the microfiction extra credit assignment just cause it would be pretty interesting to create a story by only using 6 words.

I don't know if there is a lot that is interesting about me so ill just write some random facts about myself.

Week 2 Story: The Woman in the Sky

Image
There once was a laundress who was growing tired of her labor and complained " This life is too dirty; I want something better. I wish to be an apple tree, where life is easy and the sun shines on me."  A witch heard this plea and said: " You wish to be a tree; then be a tree." The once laundress then became a tree. Unfortunately, she realized that the life of a tree was of giving to the creatures around her. People would come to pick her apples which hurt so much and animals would use her as a home which was a disturbance to her. One day an unfortunate fire started and she was burning and wailed in pain " Ouch this hurts, please! I no longer wish to be a tree I want to be fire. Fire is strong and fearless!"  The witch heard this clamor and said: " If you wish to be fire; then be fire." The laundress opened her eyes and she was the fire. She then realized being fire is too hot and consumes everything with no care. She no longer wanted to be fir...

Reading Notes: SW/CA How Bluebird and Coyote Got Their Colors

How Bluebird and Coyote Got Their Colors  A long time ago, the bluebird was a hideous color. Bluebird knew of a lake where no river river flow in or out and he bathed in this lake four times every morning for four mornings. Every morning while he bathed he sang the same song: There's a blue water. It lies there. I went in. I am all blue. On the fourth morning, bluebird shed all his feathers and cam out of the lake in his skin. The next morning, he came out of the lake and he was covered with blue feathers. Coyote had been watching bluebird the whole time.  He wanted to get in and eat the bluebird but he had fear of the water. On the last morning, Coyote said, " How is it that you lost your ugly color, and now you are blue and beautiful? You are more beautiful than anything in the skies. I want to be blue too." Coyote at this time was green. " I only went four times for four mornings," Bluebird told him. Then Coyote was proud of his blue color. He...
