Week 7

 

I'm not sure what my group is doing to be honest. At first I was on my own, then I got into a group, and now it feels like I'm on my own again. But I'm not 100% sure. Alex is still writing a children's book, I believe. But I don't know what Arleene is doing. Our group feels really scattered and I don't feel like anything's getting done. We've practically had 7 or 8 days to work on our 20% Project and all I feel like I've gotten done is doubt our project and read children's books. I've also done research on how to start writing a book. So technically, I'm doing as the research told me to do. I'm thinking as much as possible about my topic. Putting out ideas and thinking about the characters and the main plot. In my mind I've made some progress. Just not as much as I'd like to have done.

Week 6

This week, Mr. Lee told my group that we should write our own stories and then at the end, compare our stories and edit them and stuff. So I really want to write about a little boy going through adventures in his house, in each room of the house. I know I want the main character to be a boy. I want to make the character exactly like my little six year old cousin, immediately I thought of him. His name is Adrian and I want him to be who I base my character on. I'm debating if I want to even be in a group anymore, I originally wanted to be on my own anyways. I just don't want to have to run my ideas passed anyone, I want my own decisions. But I think I really need pictures in the story and I'm no artist. So I'd really need Alex. And Arleene could serve as some help in writing, as well. But I feel like everything would be easier if they just listened to me, like the dictatorship I want this to be.... Just kidding about the dictator thing.
