Labyrinth Story

During my reading of this story, I began to imagine that I was on the journey along with Searchall. I especially liked the character names. In most stories there are names of people, animals, or creatures that really leave you in the darkness and wondering where or why they have a certain name. With this story, the names Searchall (or Ubiquitous) and Delusions are very distinct. They are very different from names of characters found in your regular fictitious adventure story.
The Labyrinth story reminds me of stories such as Lord of the Rings or The Chronicles of Narnia due to the fact the main character is on an adventure. While on this adventure or journey, the main character runs into a foreign character who then aids them through the journey. I especially like how the story just seems to capture you into it and give you the feeling that you are on the journey along with the characters. As I continue writing and practicing to become a better writer, I would love to be able to write creative stories like this one. I have written fictitious stories in the past but I want to be able to write stories that are thought provoking and mind boggling not as to leave my audience in a state of confusion but with a feeling as if they themselves are the characters in the literature.

Chavous,

Your writing looks pretty good so far and seems to come pretty easily.

Did you post your "Labyrinth" reponse to the DB as well? If not, please do that so you can get in on that conversation.

Any thoughts on something to write about for your first report? (just not abortion!)

Anyway, the more the better, so keep writing as much as you can.
