Literary Responses

This is my Into the Wild quote essay. I choose a quote from the book and shared my thoughts on it. The theme is the connection between humans and our desire to take risks, and why.

As the title clearly says, this is a short essay I wrote for comparing the book To Kill A Mockingbird to its movie.

A universal statement is a phrase or quote that can apply to much more than the context it was used in. I choose a quote from Atticus Finch in To Kill A Mockingbird about courage. I apply it to things within the book, to a more current event, and to historical events.

This is my review on the book TH1RTEEN R3ASONS WHY, a book that I honestly think that everyone should read. It may change your life.

This is one of those point-of-view-switch stories, inspired by the novel The Old Man and the Sea. The scene is the ending battle between Santiago and the great marlin he has caught on his hook—from the point of view of the marlin.

Hello! My name is Sayle, and I created this website back in my freshman year of high school as a place to put my writing, specifically the pieces I've written for school. I've wanted to be a novelist since second grade, and I've been a huge book-lover since before kindergarten. As of November 2016, I completed the first draft of my first novel. I'm currently working on the sequel, as well as several side stories featuring minor characters from the original novel. I hope to be able to get my extended universe, known comprehensively as The Elemental Spiral, published, or on it's way to being published, after I graduate high school. In total, I've written four books, two novels and two novellas, in addition to various shorter pieces.
