I Can Do This Better

The Old Man and The Sea is one book where I can relate to with Stephen King. When he says "bad books have more to teach than the good ones" I felt as a writer I can could write something better than that. Well, simply because it seemed dull and boring to me, and as a reader I DID NOT want to go on reading this book. When I finally finished that ridiculous book I thought if I were to write a story simliar to the Old Man and the Sea I could write it better in every level. In every level of the toolbox that Stephen King refers to. I can do this better.

The Search in Zora Neale Hurston

Annie Walker and her friend she talks in over email and both love Zora Hurston, and admire her books. They both decide that they will meet up on the search to find more facts about Zora Hurston. Walker and Charlotte both meet up at the airport and start their quest by beginning to questioning the lady in the post office. Following from her and what she knows they start questioning Mrs. Moseley that knew Zora. They learned where she was buried at, and decided to buy a tombstone for Hurston's grave.Then they meet up with Dr. Benton, who was close friends with Zora, just to find more things about her. For example, like her real cause of death and her relationships with her neighbors. Annie Walker comes across the problem of getting people to tell her more information about Zora Hurston. So Annie came up with the idea to pretend to be Hurston's niece. She knew one really knew Hurston's real niece,and because of that, that was the only reason why she could pull off being Hurston's niece. But throughout the story Annie Walker begins to find her own roots. She ends up thinking that she is apart of Hurston's family. This experience made it clear to Walker and also got her to look at Hurston and her novels, but it also had Walker learn more about herself. Like where she came from, and personally opened her eyes to who she is. Just like Janie in Their Eyes Were Watching God.

Janie has the Blues

Janie goes through many confusing objectives in her life while trying to figure out how to be happily married. Her grandmother helps her which doesn't help at all. Her grandmother tells her that she must get married with the man that she chose for her. Even though Janie says that she doesn't love him. Janie's Nanny insists that eventually the love will come. So poor Janie agrees and gets married. Nanny told her that she didn't want her to struggle as much as she did when she was younger. Which was a life of being a slave, and her being with logan would relieve her worries about Janie having to struggle. Janie finally realizes that this wasn't love or how marriage is. Janie later in her life found a man that she thought was the perfect one. Someone she can make her dream of being happily married. But he wasn't the one. As years go on Janie has not been self satisfied and has remained quiet and just working. Janie has gone through a lot to reach her goal in life.

Questions and Answers

Right now Janie has a lot of questions to how her life is going right now. But this goes for everyone. When people are young everyone's minds are full of questions, and over the years the questions get answered. More problems come and they are bigger. For example, if she really loved her husband Logan and if she really wants to stay with him. Over the years she finds out that she doesn't love him. She also finds out what love is as a woman. The quote,"There are years that ask questions and years that answer." I think that majority of her problems now will be answered in the years to come in her life. Unfortunately, she will have more problems coming to her maybe even bigger.

Men and Women and their Futures

Men and women have different views on their future. For example, high school students who date a lower classmen is hard to do. Because the older one may want to break up and focus on their future and go to tyheir dream college. This can be difficult for the younger classmen if they really liked each other. It may also be good if they can work it out but if they are really focused on their future then it would be best to break up. Then it might be good if the younger one is going to the same college as the ther one. But then they might not want to be together anymore. It may be difficult but then it may be hard. THis topic in particular has many different views but this is mine and I know it may not be the best but it is all I have experienced in my life now.
