Passage to Remember.... (Memorable Passage)

“It meant that when she saw him for the first time in every life, Daniel was already in love with her. Every time. And always had been. And every time, she had to fall in love with him from scratch.He could never pressure her or push her into loving him. He had to win her anew each time. Daniel's love for her was one long, uninterrupted stream.It was the purest form of love there was,purer even than the love Luce returned. His love flowed without breaking,without stopping. Whereas Luce's love was wiped clean with every death, Daniel's grew over time, across all eternity. How powerfully strong must it be by now? Hundreds of love stacked one on top of the other? It was almost too massive for Luce to comprehend. He loved her that much,and yet in every lifetime,over and over again,he had to wait for her to catch up.”  

I chose this passage from one of my favorite series Fallen by Lauren Kate because I really enjoy reading young adult fantasy books with a deep love story. I don't like the ones where they just randomly find each other and fall in love but are more like soul mates destined to be together. Passion is the third book in the fallen series and follows Lucinda (Luce) Price as she ventures through her past lives to see what it is she is fighting for and everything about herself she can't remember about her past lives with Daniel. 

Writers as Readers&Readers as Writers

Writers as Readers’ Questions:

1. When you read, what do you need to be comfortable?

When I read I have to be around little to no distractions. I always tend to sit in my room with my lamp on and my blanket. I will pick a favorite song of mine that I think fits the theme of the book and put it on reply. I always listen to it with my headphones to help me tune everyone out while I’m reading so I don’t get distracted. Once I get hooked in a book I have to read it to the end even if that means I am sitting there for several hours straight until the end.

2. What genres (types of writing) interest you? What specifically about this genre interests you?           Why are you drawn to science fiction books, for example?

Fantasy or Sifi type fiction is mostly what I tend to read. I enjoy reading about things that as far as we know aren’t humanly possible. These types of books tend to draw me in because if they are written well enough it’s like I can put myself in the story and live through the main characters point of view in my head. It is like living someone else’s life and experience what they experience all inside your own head.

5. ( PART A) Have you ever picked up a book and been excited to turn the next page, then the next, then the next, then the next? What book? Why couldn’t you stop reading? (PART B) Is there a book you had to just trudge through to the finish?

A: SEE NUMBER 8

B: I read a book my sophomore year for World History Honors about the Black Death and it was so hard to stay interested in it. Even though I tried to focus on the book I always ended up zoning out and getting distracted to the point I quit reading it after about 15 minutes each time.

8. What is your favorite book or series? Why is this your favorite?

My favorite book series that I have ever read was Hush Hush. I am absolutely in love with the boys in the story I don’t really know why but from the very first books I couldn’t stop. I finished the whole 4 book series in a little over two days.

12. Do you think that someone who reads a lot might become a stronger writer? Do you think we pick up vocabulary, sentence structures, themes, etc. From the books we read that come out directly or indirectly in our own writing?

I think if someone reads a lot it makes writing a lot easier for a person most of the time. You pick up on vocabulary and grammar and ideas to use when reading books and it flows easier for you. I think a lot of our ideas stem from books we’ve enjoyed reading because they are more imprinted into our minds.

Tunnel of Life..

The Wisteria blankets the arch of the old stone passage

The silence is still and peaceful

A place which holds so much history but will never be known historically for its past

 The intertwined passages set you on an unknown course

When the light seeps through the shadows and the darkness rolls away

A soft cold breeze crawls through the air and the sound of lapping waves filled the silence

From out of the tunnel the wander steps into a sea of stars…..

Under the Willow....

The quite little willow whispers

Telling the tales of ancient worlds gone

Forever history’s silent secret keeper

Soft Meadow

Soft and warn under the sunny rays

Out in the wilderness

For no one to find

The grass is untouched, the flowers still thrive

Man has not found this little piece of heaven yet

Eating away whatever is in their path

Always in fear the humans will come and the peaceful place will fall

Destruction they will bring

Out of their homes of metal and asphalt into our home they will come

Walking with their machines and their guns to shed blood on unstained grass and set their homes in a place that was never theirs to take
