    1. I like these lines:

      "She walks into the water.

      Her dress stays dry as she walks."

      It's counterintuitive, but it works. That's pretty cool.

      Title: I am the one who...
      Challenge: It was supposed to be under the 'Me' challenge but when I tried to put it in, it did not show up so it is technically a free write.

    3. I like how you keep the negative voices at bay by talking to them like someone you don't care for. It's great that you manage to keep things positive. Don't ever lost that trait!

    1. I really like this line, Porter: "For they are The Watchers we watch rise."
      There are other really interesting lines, too, but I think that one is my favorite.

The Hate U Give (Second Post--up to page 220)

Once again, I would like you to respond to two prompts (at least 150 words each) by Sunday at 8:00 p.m.   Here they are: 1. Once news of Khalil’s shooting spreads across the neighborhood, unrest arises: “Sirens wail outside. The news shows three patrol that have been set  ablaze at the police precinct...A gas station near the freeway gets looted...My neighborhood is a warzone” (Chapter 9, 136-139). Respond to this development and describe some parallels  to current events. 2. How do you think Starr would define family? What about Seven? How do you define it?

Look Me in the Eye: Second Post (to page 143)

Christopher, from  Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time , is a fictional character, while  Look Me in the Eye  is John Elder Robison's account of his life with Asperger's.  What similarities do you see between the fictional Christopher, and the real-life John Elder Robison?  What differences do you see?  Please provide examples from the texts to support your response.  Your response should be at least 300 words.
