Short stories

 

"Prisoner on a Hell Planet"

A lot can be said about this story because it has so much emotion in it. In a way, it reminded me of my favorite writter Edgar Allan Poe. His mother had died and his father expected him to comfort him and ease his pain when he too was in pain and agony. The point of the story is that it all made him feel like he was in prison.

 

"Dylan and Donovan"

This was about two sister who were both very different and both had problems comunicating with people. Or maybe they weren't very much different at all. When one looks closer, it becomes apparent that they are actually pretty similar.

 

"Caricature"

In this story the main character was one of those kind of people who draw caricatures for people to make money and he seemed kind of bored of his life. He meet some wierd girl that probably just wanted some one to pay attention to her.

 

"Showing Helder"

The main character in this story was a comic writter and he didn't like some thing about the one he was making so he went around asking people what they thought about it simply to comfirm that he should change it or to justify to himself that he should(n't?) change it.

 

Jar of Fools

 

Part I-

 

Part II

 The second part of the book calls forth the point that it is impossible to pass through life without creating 'ripples'.

                 The second half of this book really explores the idea that everything you do has consequences. What you do does not only affect you but other people you come into contact with...
