Of Mice and Men Continued...
As I was writing this I was thinking about George. I know that one way to take this story is by making a trail come after the murder of Lennie which is what we did in class but I wanted to do something different, where George has a chance of getting away. So as I was writing this I was trying to incorporate little things that happened during the book like in chapter 7 I had slim say he couldn't even kill a puppy let alone a human, just like Lennie did both of those things. I wanted Lennie to be as much alive in these following chapters as I could make him, even though he is dead.
I had the story twist at the end to Ruby being the girl from Weed because she was such a minor character, but I believe that she played a much bigger role. When I pictured the girl from Weed or Ruby I pictured her with long dark hair so I decided to give her the name that Lily came up with for our trial (which was Ruby Pearl Clearmont) and give her a role. George had been through so much already after killing his very best friend and the having to run away, I figured why not give him a break because she was mighty happy that he saved her, so I'm thinking only good can come from that.
I included this in my portfolio to show a little of what I can do when I am writing creatively. To write this I wrote in the same voice and in a similar manner that John Steinbeck had in Of Mice and Men. I loved writing this paper, I was able to show my talent when it comes writing and I thoroughly enjoyed doing so. I was able to write this easily, and with heart. I wish I had more chances to write like this for my school work.
