Some feedback that I heard about my project was that I needed to have an overall message to my story and that it couldn't just be a random story. Something that stuck with me was the fact that people seemed really confused about my project and they kept asking me what the purpose of it was. I suppose that I need more of a purpose then just writing a good story, but I do not know how to make it solve a great world problem without changing the entire story.
2) What have you accomplished/done so far since the last blog entry (last Wednesday)
I have read a lot of Edgar Allen Poe because his characters are the kind that I want to try to have. They are all very deep characters and he doesn't have to say much about them to make them way. I have also added a new piece to my story.
3) What has gone wrong? What challenges have you faced?
I have changed my story a lot. The story line is a lot different from when I started and that is a good thing because a have a good plot line now, but it is also bad because I had to erase a lot of what I wrote in the beginning to make the new story line fit. My project is not going as planned and I think that this is one of those times that I will learn from failing and not planning very well.
4) What is your next step of action?
My next step of action is to keep on writing my story and to think of an overall moral for the end.
