Our first assignment is an “Out of Place” essay. We can construct our thoughts on a time where we felt out of place or we can create a fictional story with a theme is out of place. “Place” does not have to be an actual place like the park or the park on rollerblading day when you brought a basketball. Place can also be an emotional or different emotions which is the theme I am going to take on.
With this assignment I took the time to read stories other than what our professor assigned to analyze a character’s place. This did not take much time to do because I read stories that I have previously read so I knew the plot.
I had an idea on a whim one night when had high winds in our area. That was pretty scary to me because the wind forces at times sounded like they were going to take the world out. When I sat down to write the story I realized that the research was too time consuming and I would not have enough time to get it to satisfactory without missing the deadline.
What I decided to do was to contemplate on a story that I have heard many times and focus on the characters emotions. By imagining myself in the characters place and the actions that they would take worked out well, because I was able to put together a story while concentration on the different emotions that the character and I would have.
It helps to have my ideas down by way of a bubble diagram. Writing down the different parts of the story in the diagram and the emotional places that the character ends up helped me to construct my thought and words in their appropriate places.
