Tell-Tale Heart

In the Tell-Tale Heart, the narrator claims he isn't insane. There are things he uses to back his argument, but some of them aren't very convincing. I think the narrator is insane.

First, he doesn't like the eye this old man has. His solution: Kill the old man. Why is that not crazy? Second, it took him a whole hour to put his head through the door. "Ha! would a madman have been so wise as this." Once he killed the man, he chopped him up and hid him under the floorboards. Then, he started hearing sounds and when it was too much to bear he called the officers villains and told them to rip up the floorboards. "Villains!" I shrieked, "dissemble no more! I admit the deed! --tear up the planks! here, here! --It is the beating of his hideous heart!"

I don't think he was very calm. Especially near the end. He is definitely insane.

Patriot's Pen

There are many reasons I am proud of our country. One reason is that we help other countries. Another reason is that we have medical associations like Red Cross. Lastly, we have the freedom to vote and to practice the religion of our choice.

Short story conclusion

Author's Note: This is me conclusion for my short story. I think it is a good conclusion. Please comment on my transitions.

Frank moved his small cheese business to Wisconsin with hope of more customers. The cheese was delivered faster and was less expensive. Eventually more customers came. Soon, a new building began its construction across the street. Frank wondered what it was. Then, a sign was put up . It read: "Bill's Cheese Shack Coming Soon."

Short story hook

Owning a cheese business can be hard work. Especially when you have too much cheese and not enough customers. This problem could arise if your cheese castle is in England because Wisconsin is the cheese state. This is Frank the munchkin's problem.
