The joke became the idea of the Short Story

One of my friends who became the writer tells about how he wrote a short story that his idea was taken from a joke.

An obesity sufferer consulted to the doctor about the method of reducing the weight. After hearing the explanation, the doctor gave the patient one tin was full contained the pill.

"Doctor, This is a great number How many items of the pill that must I drank daily?”

"This medicine not for you drank."

"How I used if this pills not to be drunk?" Ask the surprised patient.

"Each morning when getting up, spread this pill on the previous floor was picked up by you came back one by one."

-------------------

Heard this anecdote would?

So, from this anecdote the idea the daughter's story Marsha emerged in the head. With the ATM method (Amati Tiru Modifikasi) or Observed Copied Modification, the anecdote I the modification and developed, and no longer about obesity but about the lazy characteristics (That was the core this story).

So that the intact story was given by me the reason why the daughter Marsha lazy, that is: the only child, that in love his parents and had many attendants who prepared all of his requirements. To related rather long (in accordance with the page that was required), the description about the lazy characteristics the daughter, was presented by me in long orders that she delivered to his attendant until him still need not sound and only with the sign of the head nod or the wink.

Because of the theme generally fantasy, the leading figure of doctor, I modification became the palace healer. The necessary part rather think was to modify 'medicine' in the story. I thought simple, the lazy daughter because always was served, if all that served was not then he could eliminate the lazy characteristics. Like the long saying, could because normally. So, in the daughter's story Marsha Yang Manja, 'medicine/the ingredients' to expel the lazy characteristics of the daughter Marsha precisely must be drunk by people around it.

So, was easy not made a short story? Be enough to make use of jokes in and around us and made that as the theme related.

Happy writing

Writing is Art

Writing is art. Therefore, the capacity wrote often also was connected with the capacity literature. In the world of literature was known by the principle dulce and utile that was significant beautiful and useful.

The literary work preferably filled the principle as beautiful and useful art. The writer's expression by arranging or plaiting words to something that was significant from beginning to be light, explicit, to deep could be categorised as the art expression.

This expression of art of words if being connected in 8 theories of multi-intelligence (multiple intelegences) Howard Gardner entered the category of linguistic intelligence.

This linguistic intelligence could have developed since childhood as the excessive capacity that was owned by a child. Therefore, we might not surprised if having the child still was seven or eight years old could have written the short story, in fact wrote the book!

Breaking Dawn (The Twilight Saga, Book 4)

It might seem redundant to dismiss the fourth and final Twilight novel as escapist fantasy--but how else could anyone look at a romance about an ordinary, even clumsy teenager torn between a vampire and a werewolf, both of whom are willing to sacrifice their happiness for hers? Flaws and all, however, Meyer's first three novels touched on something powerful in their weird refraction of our culture's paradoxical messages about sex and sexuality.

The conclusion is much thinner, despite its interminable length. Everygirl Bella achieves her wishes quickly (marriage and sex, in that order, are two, and becoming an immortal is another), and once she becomes a vampire it's almost impossible to identify with her. But that's not the main problem. Essentially, everyone gets everything they want, even if their desires necessitate an about-face in characterization or the messy introduction of some back story.

Nobody has to renounce anything or suffer more than temporarily--in other words, grandeur is out. This isn't about happy endings; it's about gratification. A sign of the times? Ages 12–up. Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
