King's concern that the public wouldn't accept more than one book from an author within a year. He came up with the alias after seeing a novel by

The Snows of Kilimanjaro is a great example of Hemingway's overall theme of nature. Another work of Hemingway's that goes along with his
reoccurring theme of nature is, The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber. It also takes place on an African safari. The main character Francis
Macomber is accompanied by his wife, Margot, and the safari guide Richard Wilson. They partake in hunting adventures all throughout the story, while
Francis Macomber battles an internal conflict of a lack of self–confidence and self–assurance. Francis Macomber makes the following remark in the
story when discussing his reaction when he faces a lion, "I bolted like a rabbit" (Hemingway). At the end of the story, Francis Macomber is shot and
killed accidentally as a buffalo he wounded is charging him head on. Macomber was standing his ground against the buffalo, in order to show he has
gotten over his lack of bravery. This story relates to the theme first off through its setting. It was set on an African safari, where the characters hunted a
number of different types of game throughout the story. This relates to the theme and the author, because Hemingway himself enjoyed hunting. It also
relates through the symbolism it uses throughout the story. It symbolizes Francis Macomber's hatred through the lion by saying "his big yellow eyes,

They are still debating over the solution for this.
"In term of foreign policy, he is indecisive" –Bui, 36. According to what he said, Mr. Obama often gives late decisions. He is not good at dealing with
other countries. Ukraine and Eastern Sea are one of the obvious proofs. China and Russia have been very daring lately; America is losing respect
in both term of economy and military. Israel is another country to concern. Imagine if there is no Israel, all those Middle Eastern countries are
sharing the same belief. They will eventually team up, create their own Alliance and only God knows what they can do with that. The world
doesn't need another version of Germany in World War 2. According to Jenifer Rubin from The Washington Post, in an article she said "President
Obama gave an interview in which he viciously attacked Israel, suggesting that Israel was the cause of the peace process failure, that the United
States could no longer protect Israel if the peace process failed". Mr. Obama should consider that keeping Israel strong is a good thing to do right
now. A strong Israel means that Middle East is unstable. Israel's neighbor countries will keep being suspicious in every moves Israel made. They will
be busy dealing with each other. In another word, it will prevent them to unify.
However, American should consider the good that he has done for this country. He ended the war with Iraq as the last troop left in 2011. He

Autobiography Of My Childhood
In second grade, I finally figured out that something was wrong with me. There always had been, and it was only getting worse. For as long as I

The school tried to discourage my parents from thinking I was gifted, saying things like 'A lot of people think that about their kids,' and 'She's fine

I was gifted. Very. The school resumed its rhetoric with even more force. They didn 't want me to leave. I was dragging up their test scores. My
parents, however, did want me to leave, as did I. We started looking at schools. Two favorites emerged: Nova Classical Academy and Minnetonka
Public Schools's Navigator program. Nova was a public charter school in Saint Paul, much closer to my house in Minneapolis, and was
recommended by my IQ test proctor. The Navigator program was, unsurprisingly, in Minnetonka, and my parents had found it on their own. Due to
my father's anxieties about me going to a charter, they decided to look more closely at Minnetonka. A little while later, I was pulled from my school
to go to a Navigator orientation. As soon as I walked in to the classroom, I felt every pair of eyes on me. I was in the worst situation imaginable–I was
the newcomer. I didn 't know anything about this strange new place, half an hour away from my school, my house, and anything and anyone I knew.

As I grew older, I noticed a change in the way I identified myself. At the age of 12, I hit puberty and my hormones were raging. I now understood
that the stalk didn 't really drop me off at my doorstep. I was now introduced to the next bond in my life, the female. Females have had a major
impact on the way a man governs his life. At this time in my life I knew to be more adamant about my hygiene and the way I present myself in
public. This way, I might attract the same girls that attracted my attention. I was fairly good at conversing with the opposite sex and this was some sort
of fulfillment in my life that greatly influenced the way I think and act, not only to impress others but also to feel good about myself.
After I hit puberty, I realized a new Joey. A more a mature Joey, who started caring for the feelings of others rather than just myself. It was a good
time for this to happen since my Bar Mitzvah was right around the corner. It was soon time for me to be recognized as a man. It was also a time
where I found myself connected to God. This spiritual feeling gave me a stronger guidance which I did not yet realize until I was a little older.

that wasn't the end but in fact a beginning to an even bigger obstacle, high school. I still remember on the day of graduation my mom went alone
because my dad was working and after I told her that this wasn't the last time she would see me walking down for a diploma because in couple more
years I would be doing it again. That was a big deal because she never graduated high school neither did my dad because my mom had me and they had
to care for me. Then finally I made it to high school. This was the place where everything I learned up to now would help me. My 9th grade year was

Writing is way that we can express ourselves, it is a way to interface ideas and thoughts and to prove a point. Throughout my writing experience or
process I have struggled with writing especially using details or really expressing myself my work. In this course Facts & Fiction: Portraits in World

view, level, and writing something different rather than the usual. I look forward to getting feedback from my peers and learning their thoughts on my

Reading and writing were two things my parents use to always push me to improve and work on more often. They always told me they are the
essentials of everything thing. Even though I disliked both at a young age as I grew older I preferred writing because I can always change the
way I write and write from my point of view, really be creative with it and prove my point. Growing up I always loved writing short stories
especially scary stories. I always was creative with them and even made them realistic. To write an essay I usually have a couple of steps writing an
outline, and the thesis a draft and finally a final draft. The most difficult part about this is writing the thesis because the whole essay revolves the
thesis because it summarizes the whole essay. At the end of some essays, I had to use citations to do that there were many websites that helped me

Dr. Seuss Essay examples
Dr. Seuss
Born in 1904, Theodor Seuss Geisel, better known as Dr. Seuss, is perhaps one of the most beloved children's authors of the twentieth century.
Although he is most famous as an author of children's books, Geisel was also a political cartoonist, advertisement designer, and film director. He
used the power of imagination to produce unforgettable children's books and helped solve the problem of illiteracy among America's children. By
using his experiences in life as a foundation for most of his books, Theodor Geisel was able to shape the character of many of his readers, as well as
teach children subliminal messages through a unique writing style that incorporated various elements and techniques. Through a few of his books,

Seuss was still able to make reading fun and enjoyable to children. Along the lines of his illustrations, Theodor Geisel was among the first authors to put
illustrations equal with text, enabling his readers to follow the action and the story simultaneously. True to his eccentric character and unique
perspective, Seuss basically drew things as he saw them. Surprisingly, he had strict guidelines on how to write children's books. There was only one
illustration per page and nothing could describe anything pictured. That way, children can work out the story from the illustrations. In addition, his
characters are unique. Although his characters may seem simplistic, Seuss' illustrations are inimitable. Through his drawings, word selection, and
rhythm, Seuss created subliminal messages for his readers. Yertle the Turtle, written by Ted Geisel in 1958, illustrates one of Seuss's hidden messages:
relationships with other people. About a population of turtles, this unique allegory describes the relationship between a fascist king turtle and his turtle
subjects. As king of a small pond, Yertle wishes to have a throne built out of turtles which is high enough for him to see and rule over all the land.Dr.
Seuss writes, "with this stone for a throne, I look down on my pond/But I cannot look down on the places beyond" (Seuss). Mack, a little turtle at the

How Does an Author's Life Influence Their Writing?
Authors have inspired and created some of the most remarkable ideas that can change just one life or many; however, these authors must have had
inspiration themselves. An author's life influences who they are and what they do, writing. Edgar Allan Poe was a unique author who wrote
numerous dark, mysterious works, such as "The Tell Tale Heart," that were inspired by his life full of sorrow and despair. Comparable to Poe, S.E.
Hinton's writing was affected by her life of being different from the world and even her friends, which led to her writing about a unique character who
stands out in The Outsiders. Lastly, Elie Wiesel is alike to the previous authors. His life, burdened by ceaseless pain that he bore through, reflects in his
writing in Night. Anybody's life can change from just one significant moment that they have lived, no matter who they are or what they do. Edgar Allan
Poe, S.E. Hinton, and Elie Wiesel had been just average people who have challenged events in their lives which who used those events to write.
Edgar Allan Poe's writing had certainly been impacted by his life. Poe was born to his mother, Eliza Poe, in 1809. However, his alcoholic father,
David Poe Jr., had left him. His mother later died of Tuberculosis when he was still young. Although he had joined the Allan Family, this absence of
his parents brought him to be lonely. His foster father, John Allan, raised Poe as if he was his own, but Poe and his

It is very important to be aware of what is going on in the world however sometimes reading can be a better source or information than watching

beliefs that are more logical. I had structure growing up as a kid and was directed to what was right and wrong but I was not born into a political
dictatorship. My parents were caring people and emphasized that treating others with respect is more important than following some indoctrinated
code. I am fortunate to have been given the freedom to develop my own social and political views. Having political guidance from family is
important but being told that only one particular political belief system is infallible is not the ideal way to educate. My parents have always preached
equality, and that all people should have equal opportunity to pursue their goals despite their religion, race, ethnic background or sexual orientation. At a
young age I was taught to recognize that all Americans have an equal opportunity to aspire to an education regardless of their economic condition. My

Moving forward with directness, I think we actually "suck" at healing. We do not understand the essence of what we are being called to bring forth in
the world and, yes, I believe it is our responsibility to dig deeper. If there is a more sophisticated synonym I could use in replace of "suck," I'm not
interested in your suggestion, but thank you.

William Wordsworth Born April 7, 1770 to John Wordsworth and Ann Cookson in Cockermouth, Cumberland was the poet William Wordsworth.
He was the second of five children. Richard, the oldest was a lawyer. Dorothy was a year younger than William and also a poet. John was a sea
captain of the Earl of Abergavenny and was killed in a shipwreck. Christopher was the youngest who became the Master of Trinity College at
Cambridge. In November in 1791, William visited France. He met and fell in love with Annette Vallon. In 1792, a daughter was born, Caroline
Wordsworth. In 1793 the tensions between France and England became so tense he left both Annette and Caroline behind to return to England.
He would not see either of them for years, but did try to support them. When he finally was able to visit again with Annette and Caroline, it was to
tell Annette he had fallen in love with another. It was after he told her that he wrote The Sonnet, a poem recalling a walk on the beach with his 9
year old Caroline, whom he had not seen in the years he was in England. In 1793, An Evening and Descriptive Sketches was published. In 1795 he
was finally able to pursue is dream to be a poet due to a 900 pound payment from Raisley Calvert. In 1795 William also met Samuel Taylor
Coleridge. Together with William's sister Dorothy the three wrote lyrical poems. This did not give any of them a name as an author. One of
William's most famous poems was published in a collection, it was Tintern Abbey. Samuel Coleridge also had a piece published in the collection,
it was The Rime of the Ancient Mariner. Between the years of 1795 and 1797 William wrote his one and only play. The Borders was a tragic tale
during the reign of Henry III, in which the northerners had conflicts with Scottish rovers. The play was never acted, as according to Thomas Harris,
the manager of Covent Garden Theatre it needed significant revision. In 1842, it was revised and published. William, his sister Dorothy and friend
Samuel traveled to Germany in the fall of 1798. In the harsh winter he began work on his autobiographical, The Prelude. He also worked on a
collection of poems, the Lucy Poems. Dorothy and William returned to England in 1799.

A Biography On My Mom
I wrote a biography on my mom because she is basically an older and wiser me, but her childhood wasn't exactly as easy. Lashae Damore Bibbins
was born on March fifteenth, 1970 in Los Angeles California at the UCLA Medical Center. She was born on her dad's birthday and unfortunately, the
day her father's best friend died from a car incident. Lashae's parents are Lucille and John Jefferson.
Her first memory was when she was four or three years old in pre–school called Kimberly Ann in 1973. Lashae says, "I remember they had an ugly red
carpet, and I refused to take a nap till the teacher said "okay just lay down quietly". I used to watch a T.V show called "H.R. Puffin Stuff." There
was a red flute, an ugly green witch and the trees moved and talked." Lashae's mom especially remembers when Lashae would cry every time she
dropped her off, which gave her a headache. As a child Lashae was most afraid of dying. She would think about it all the time and scare herself. She
also remembers the weekends when she was young. "Saturdays were the best because I was able to watch cartoons all morning while drinking hot
chocolate and eating toast with grape jelly. My favorite t.v–show to this day was the Brady Bunch."
Lashae had two siblings. Her unreliable older brother, Maurice, who she thought was very weird because he would always lie and steal from their family
and an annoying younger sister, Meme, who at the time lived to make Lashae's life miserable by pretending that Lashae hurt

According to Jenifer Rubin from The Washington Post, in an article she said "President Obama gave an interview in which he viciously attacked Israel, suggesting that Israel was the cause of the peace process failure, that the United States could no longer protect Israel if the peace process failed".

The school resumed its rhetoric with even more force. They didn 't want me to leave. I was dragging up their test scores. My parents, however, did want me to leave, as did I. We started looking at schools. Two favorites emerged: Nova Classical Academy and Minnetonka Public Schools's Navigator program. Nova was a public charter school in Saint Paul, much closer to my house in Minneapolis, and was recommended by my IQ test proctor. The Navigator program was, unsurprisingly, in Minnetonka, and my parents had found it on their own.

I now understood that the stalk didn 't really drop me off at my doorstep. I was now introduced to the next bond in my life, the female. Females have had a major impact on the way a man governs his life. At this time in my life I knew to be more adamant about my hygiene and the way I present myself in public. This way, I might attract the same girls that attracted my attention. I was fairly good at conversing with the opposite sex and this was some sort of fulfillment in my life that greatly influenced the way I think and act, not only to impress others but also to feel good about myself. After I hit puberty, I realized a new Joey. A more a mature Joey, who started caring for the feelings of others rather than just myself. It was a good time for this to happen since my Bar Mitzvah was right around the corner. It was soon time for me to be recognized as a man. It was also a time where I found myself connected to God. This spiritual feeling gave me a stronger guidance which I did not yet realize until I was a little older. Religion is a big factor that helped me and will continue to help me get to the right places the in right way. My parents had taught me about religion to instill Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 10. Educational Autobiography Essay Miguel Huerta Period 1 September 8, 2010 Educational Autobiography A lot of people think education is just something you get in school, but in reality education comes from different places and people not just school and teachers. For example, way before I started school I was already being educated by my parents, they taught me how to eat, behave, use the bathroom, talk, and a lot of other things that help out in life. I started my educational career in John F. Kennedy Elementary. I don't really remember my years there because I only went there for Kindergarten and 1st grade. After that, I went to Sepulveda Elementary. That was a learning experience because I had to basically be on my own for a couple of days since I was the new...show more content... Sadly to say, I didn't really have a teacher in middle school that made a big impact in my life but I matured on my own and got my stuff together and put my work first and girls second. When I graduated 8th grade I was so excited because I had accomplished something special but I knew that wasn't the end but in fact a beginning to an even bigger obstacle, high school. I still remember on the day of graduation my mom went alone because my dad was working and after I told her that this wasn't the last time she would see me walking down for a diploma because in couple more years I would be doing it again. That was a big deal because she never graduated high school neither did my dad because my mom had me and they had to care for me. Then finally I made it to high school. This was the place where everything I learned up to now would help me. My 9th grade year was really good I met new friends that I still talk to, got good grades but other than that it was a normal year. When I went to 10th grade I was in AOF (Academy of Finance) or Global. At first I was a little optimistic about being in it because I didn't really know a lot of people but I stayed because I was a little curious about the whole business stuff going on in there. It was a good decision to stay because I really enjoy all the business related work and I am looking forward to even having some sort of a business career later on in life. The teacher that really made an impact on me is the teacher for whom I Get more content on HelpWriting.net

My very first secondary school was Salisbury, it was said that it was one of the worst performing schools in the country and also one of the worst behaved. I did not know this and didn't believe it because I and most of my friends had achieved very good grades in our SATS. I had achieved level five in English, five in science and four in mathematics. Anyways when I first started the school was the chitter chatter of other pupils and the smell of school dinners was as always putrid. The grease they used to fry made the air slimy and un– breathable. When I entered the massive gates the immense building towered over me. I felt tiny in comparison just like my confidence at the time, I was terrified. My year had started a day earlier than the rest of the school so that we could get to know each other better.

  • 13. Writing is way that we can express ourselves, it is a way to interface ideas and thoughts and to prove a point. Throughout my writing experience or process I have struggled with writing especially using details or really expressing myself my work. In this course Facts & Fiction: Portraits in World Art I expect to gain more knowledge on how to write a perfect essay, story, letter, and assignment. I expect to learn new genres and rhetorical situations. I also think my writing will improve academically and I will develop my skills in writing. Also taking my writing to a different point of view, level, and writing something different rather than the usual. I look forward to getting feedback from my peers and learning their thoughts on my writing and how they can help me improve. Reading and writing were two things my parents use to always push me to improve and work on more often. They always told me they are the essentials of everything thing. Even though I disliked both at a young age as I grew older I preferred writing because I can always change the way I write and write from my point of view, really be creative with it and prove my point. Growing up I always loved writing short stories especially scary stories. I always was creative with them and even made them realistic. To write an essay I usually have a couple of steps writing an outline, and the thesis a draft and finally a final draft. The most difficult part about this is writing the thesis because the whole essay revolves the thesis because it summarizes the whole essay. At the end of some essays, I had to use citations to do that there were many websites that helped me cite sources such as easybib which was a really simple process. So, citing sources was one of the easiest things about writing the essay. Writing to a teacher is way more complex then writing to a fried or a family member. Writing to a teacher is way more complex, I must make sure that everything is on point or it reaches the state of protection. Which is having the right format, a great thesis and really conveying the point of the essay. Writing to a friend or a family member is much easier I usually don't focus on grammatic errors or writing a perfect thesis. Today some of us don't Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 14. Dr. Seuss Essay examples Dr. Seuss Born in 1904, Theodor Seuss Geisel, better known as Dr. Seuss, is perhaps one of the most beloved children's authors of the twentieth century. Although he is most famous as an author of children's books, Geisel was also a political cartoonist, advertisement designer, and film director. He used the power of imagination to produce unforgettable children's books and helped solve the problem of illiteracy among America's children. By using his experiences in life as a foundation for most of his books, Theodor Geisel was able to shape the character of many of his readers, as well as teach children subliminal messages through a unique writing style that incorporated various elements and techniques. Through a few of his books, ...show more content... Seuss was still able to make reading fun and enjoyable to children. Along the lines of his illustrations, Theodor Geisel was among the first authors to put illustrations equal with text, enabling his readers to follow the action and the story simultaneously. True to his eccentric character and unique perspective, Seuss basically drew things as he saw them. Surprisingly, he had strict guidelines on how to write children's books. There was only one illustration per page and nothing could describe anything pictured. That way, children can work out the story from the illustrations. In addition, his characters are unique. Although his characters may seem simplistic, Seuss' illustrations are inimitable. Through his drawings, word selection, and rhythm, Seuss created subliminal messages for his readers. Yertle the Turtle, written by Ted Geisel in 1958, illustrates one of Seuss's hidden messages: relationships with other people. About a population of turtles, this unique allegory describes the relationship between a fascist king turtle and his turtle subjects. As king of a small pond, Yertle wishes to have a throne built out of turtles which is high enough for him to see and rule over all the land.Dr. Seuss writes, "with this stone for a throne, I look down on my pond/But I cannot look down on the places beyond" (Seuss).

  • 15. How Does an Author's Life Influence Their Writing? Authors have inspired and created some of the most remarkable ideas that can change just one life or many; however, these authors must have had inspiration themselves. An author's life influences who they are and what they do, writing. Edgar Allan Poe was a unique author who wrote numerous dark, mysterious works, such as "The Tell Tale Heart," that were inspired by his life full of sorrow and despair. Comparable to Poe, S.E. Hinton's writing was affected by her life of being different from the world and even her friends, which led to her writing about a unique character who stands out in The Outsiders. Lastly, Elie Wiesel is alike to the previous authors. His life, burdened by ceaseless pain that he bore through, reflects in his writing in Night. Anybody's life can change from just one significant moment that they have lived, no matter who they are or what they do. Edgar Allan Poe, S.E. Hinton, and Elie Wiesel had been just average people who have challenged events in their lives which who used those events to write. Edgar Allan Poe's writing had certainly been impacted by his life. Poe was born to his mother, Eliza Poe, in 1809. However, his alcoholic father, David Poe Jr., had left him. His mother later died of Tuberculosis when he was still young. Although he had joined the Allan Family, this absence of his parents brought him to be lonely. His foster father, John Allan, raised Poe as if he was his own, but Poe and his Get more content on HelpWriting.net

My parents were very lenient when it came too political preaching. I was taught to be a caring and respectful individual. My political understanding and beliefs have been molded from my early political memories and socialization experiences.

I eventually was drawn towards many different social and political perspectives, which is how I came to a logical conclusion of how I view the world politically...show more content... It is very important to be aware of what is going on in the world however sometimes reading can be a better source or information than watching bias television broadcasts. I believe that if children have to develop their own political opinion at a young age then they will attain values and beliefs that are more logical. I had structure growing up as a kid and was directed to what was right and wrong but I was not born into a political dictatorship. My parents were caring people and emphasized that treating others with respect is more important than following some indoctrinated code. I am fortunate to have been given the freedom to develop my own social and political views. Having political guidance from family is important but being told that only one particular political belief system is infallible is not the ideal way to educate. My parents have always preached equality, and that all people should have equal opportunity to pursue their goals despite their religion, race, ethnic background or sexual orientation. At a young age I was taught to recognize that all Americans have an equal opportunity to aspire to an education regardless of their economic condition. My parents were a large influence of how I view freedom of speech. They emphasized that all individuals have the right to express their opinions and advocate their personal beliefs.

What a surprise that the above paragraph is certainly going to be judged and classified in terms of narcissism by some. Again, thank you counseling profession for slapping a wound on my light and deep respect for who I am. I am formally trained as a "Psycho"–Therapist and I have an incredibly low opinion of my profession as a whole. Incredibly low. Deeply disappointed and disheartened. Yes, the sentence is a fragment. Intentionally so. I am emphasizing the fragmentation I experience in my profession as you are reading. Moving forward with directness, I think we actually "suck" at healing.

She was born on her dad's birthday and unfortunately, the day her father's best friend died from a car incident. Lashae's parents are Lucille and John Jefferson. Her first memory was when she was four or three years old in pre–school called Kimberly Ann in 1973. Lashae says, "I remember they had an ugly red carpet, and I refused to take a nap till the teacher said "okay just lay down quietly". I used to watch a T.V show called "H.R. Puffin Stuff." There was a red flute, an ugly green witch and the trees moved and talked." Lashae's mom especially remembers when Lashae would cry every time she dropped her off, which gave her a headache. As a child Lashae was most afraid of dying. She would think about it all the time and scare herself. She also remembers the weekends when she was young. "Saturdays were the best because I was able to watch cartoons all morning while drinking hot chocolate and eating toast with grape jelly. My favorite t.v–show to this day was the Brady Bunch."
