My Daughter Monologue
After my third wish had been granted, my wife, Mrs. White has not been the same. Our home became more quiet than it already has been and more lonely than ever. At nights I wouldn’t be able to sleep with the crying my wife made, I made her believe I never heard her at night, I think it makes her feel better crying behind my back than on my shoulder. She became more quiet, never ate enough, and always got herself looking pictures of Herbert. On the day of our son’s birthday, I couldn’t think of anything but to tell my wife to leave the memory alone and move on.

“Honey, look now that it’s our son’s birthday I want to talk to you about our son, maybe you should forget about him”, when it came out of my mouth, I regretted very dearly.

“How would I” between her cries.

“Okay then,” Herbert said and I was shocked by the easiness it took.

All the sudden there was a cold breeze, it gave you chills up your neck, and it gave you that feeling that you lost all your happiness inside you, and there she was my wife. She looked like she was in a cold room for hours, you could see her veins and her eyes red, I felt sorry for her. I ran and hugged her, I was scared that I wasn’t going to see her ever again, she hugged me back and it felt good.When I let go of her she bent down to grab something, it was hairy and ugly, the thing that changed our lives completely, it was the monkey's paw. I don’t know how fast you can recover from being conscious but she was very quick at that because all the sudden I heard. “I wish for my son to be dead.”
Herbert growled of frustration and with a simple movement he got a knife and threw it at her, by the time I caught my bleeding wife my son was gone. I was scared, my wife is dying and my son is gone, I knew for a fact my wife will die any second.
“I love you,” she said and then she was gone.

    I started by asking Mr. and Mrs. Smith what they remembered about the night. The mother hesitantly replied saying her son had told her that he heard weird footsteps before he was attacked. She then started to weep from the realization that the footsteps were from the attacker. As her husband tried to comfort his grieving wife, I asked him what was taken from the house. He thought for a moment and then replied, “Nothing, not a God damn thing.”…

    Although most will probably say someone close to them is inspiring, like their mother, grandmother, sister. In my opinion, they are your family, and you will always love and be inspired by them. Therefore I decided to write this on how a singer is inspiring to me. Her name is Miranda Lambert. Almost none of my friends have even heard of her. I guess because maybe she’s a country singer and they don’t really like country music? Who knows, but she is quite an amazing person. She grew up in a small town in Texas. “Not having money toughened me up a bit, but I'll always be grateful. Texas people are really strong in their roots. I started writing and playing guitar at 17. I've always loved music, and my dad is a singer-songwriter.” Miranda once…

    A suspenseful and horrific piece of literature, “The Monkey Paw” is written by W.W Jacobs. A quaint family of three receives an unusual monkey paw that is capable of making any three wishes come true. Despite the caveat of a curse attached to the paw, the family chooses to make a wish, evoking from the story a suspenseful attitude as the reader becomes wrapped up in finding out the Smiths’ fated ends. With the combination of W.W Jacobs’ settings, characters, and foreshadowing, the theme of the story, “that fate cannot be decided upon by man” is delivered pointedly and with style.…

    Step by wicked step, my boots sank further and further into the thick, red-tinged land as if the devil himself were dragging my body straight into the depths of hell. The rhythmic squelching stabbed through my rubber soles, radiating pain throughout my soul as it seared everything in its path. Squelch, squelch, squish. My tempo was interrupted by those cursed boots refusing to budge from the stubborn terrain. As if taunting me, the earth unhooked my feet from the damned soil…

Frank is wearing shorts, a short sleeved shirt and a handkerchief with tied corners on his head looking every inch the out of place, quintessential British man on holiday, slightly sweaty and flustered from the Australian heat. The study is small and untidy but quite reminiscent of his office back in England. Frank starts to unpack his belongings, putting books into shelves, he starts smiling oddly at a new copy of Roger McGough's poems, he opens the book and reads the inscription aloud;…
