Creative Writing, Hemmingway Style

Nov 29, 2010 00:06

Hiya! So, if anyone's interested, here's my latest CW assignment. Our task was to write dialogue in Hemmingway's style. I was inspired by the dialogue of the BtVS episode The Body, which has some amazing conversations :D

Enjoy!

Genre: prose, naturalist.

Summary: the aftermath of an incident.

Lol, doesn't Hemingway have one m? ;) And good job with the story, though it's his style only with short stories I'd say--in his horrid book For Whom the Bell Tolls he employs some of the longest and convoluted run-on sentences I've ever seen in my life! *rolleyes* /rant ( ... )

Probably! Cba to check :D

Ah, so is it that Wes/Fred never happens? Youch that's gotta be an angsty one!! Cos I see why he loves her, but I also see why she doesn't love him - he's far too similar to her, he's like a brother. Whereas with Gunn there's all the excitement of someone different enough to be attractive, but similar enough (with the goofy jokes) to be approachable. I don't hate them at all - it's a great ship. It's just that I love Wes so much so I want him to be with the woman he loves.

OMG Cordy/Angel sooooo hot!!! Argh Groo! Although that is a cute ship :D Gotta love the S2 finale. And honestly I'm not loving S3 as much as S2. I think mostly cos I know the crap that's gonna come, and thanks to the whole Charisma fired thing I find it hard to get into the show as much. I know too much :(

Lol, I never said it never happens...gah, I'm trying to be as unspoilery as possible, kay? :p And well I love Wes too, but I think....well there will be another woman in his life, that I enjoy him with more. ;) You'll see....or have seen already, how far have you gotten now?

And awww, don't let what's to come ruin things for you! :( I think season 4 is one of the best seasons yet, there's some true epicness, and well, the lack of Charisma is only season 5, still some time left...

Honestly, I knew a lot about ATS too--I was SO spoiled, but I found that even things I was spoiled on in season 4 still ended up surprising/shocking me--it's that good! :)

Yeah I think I made it too obscure. Basically their brother was killed, I think because of a lover's spat but there's more to it than that. Because I'm leaving it up to the reader to decide, I myself don't know the rest of the story. I'm weird like that!

Ah, I don't love him that much. But I think I love him more than Gunn, simply because I've known him longer. And cos I relate to him more, being English and having daddy issues.
