PostSubject: A Typical Day for Violet   Chapter Two I_icon_minitimeMon Oct 05, 2009 5:18 am

Their house turned to ashes. They went into the house to see if anything is unharmed. Violet's inventive brain seemed to stop. She had a little enthusiasm. She felt grumly. She hated to se their house charred. So they went to Mr. Poe's house. She and Klaus were moping around. One day, Mr. Poe said that they were going to Count Olaf's house. He said that in their parent's will, instructs that she and her siblings will be raised in the most convenient way as possible. And Count Olaf is the only relative who lives within the urban limits. Violet didn't know their new guardian well. So they packed up their things briskly. They got there. Count Olaf's house was grime. She liked Mr. Poe's house better than this house even though it smelled.They solemnly remembered the Poe household. They felt bleak. Count Olaf's house looked like it needed more arrangements. They had a chance to see Mr. Poe barely. Count Olaf came out with a creak at the door. He looked ghastly. He was also an wheezy looking man. They went in nervously. They felt obnoxious about Count Olaf's house. He (Mr. Poe) said that he cannot have Violet and their sibling's money sternly. He looked at Poe distastefully, then he said good-bye and closed the door.

Hello Harold. Thank you for submitting your response to this question. I do believe your answer is quite interesting, but off topic. Off topic means you are not answering the question quite well. I am asking you to write a story describing what a day in Violet's life would be like. Pretend you are Violet. What do you do all day?

I hope this helps clarify the question. If you need more help answering the question just let me know.

Good luck

Hello Hye-Jin,

Thank you for submitting this first draft. You need to write a story describing what Violet does in a normal day. Pretend that you are Violet. What would she do in a day.

Please write a new story in a new post.

PostSubject: 14th of September......   Chapter Two I_icon_minitimeSun Nov 08, 2009 2:47 pm

Violet woke up on 14th of September. Count Olaf briskly instructed them to do a lot of things. First, they ate breakfast feeling really glumly. Count Olaf left them a chewy thing, oatmeal, and ghastly blanchedcarrots. They hated carrots. Count Olaf told them that this day would be a distasteful and grotesque day, and it was. They cleaned the chimmeny which was covered with ash,char,rubbles,and grime. Also, the fixed the creaking door. They rested for about 5 minutes. Violet felt less inventive after doing this, and Klaus lost more enthusiasm. They wanted to mope around. Suddenly, Sunny erupted into a wail, she was hungry,nervously and solemnly, Violet and Klaus gave her some leftover foods. Now, Sunny's cry didn't echo around the room. But it was 11:27, so they slept.

PostSubject: Violet's fantastic invention   Chapter Two I_icon_minitimeMon Dec 07, 2009 3:37 pm

Violet feels less enthusiasm about parent’s death Parent’s death is bleak situation to Baudelaire youngsters. Her dream is biologist so her microscope is very important to her but it became strange so she is obnoxious. While, Klaus and Sunny are crying because his favorite pen became ash and her teething ring melted, she is moping and her inventive brain stop. Suddenly, she has an idea. Violet wants to make star for Klaus and Sunny’s recuperate. First, she fused ash, teething rings, and rubbles. Second she makes charred tree to make star. Brief time later, thing that fused. Became grotesque color and it was very cold so she blanched it to make warm. Last, she barely poor it in the charred tree and it became star. When she called Klaus and sunny, they said very nervously. She is angry but she was sad about parent’s death, too, so she sagged her mind and show star to them. They became kind because they thought about their sister’s pains to give a little happiness. And all Baudelaire youngsters grabbed their hand and said “Olleh.” They finished arrangements to meet their new guardian “Count Olaf”

Good work Harold. This is a very interesting description of what a day would look like in the life of Violet Baudelaire. I truly enjoyed reading your story. In order to make it a little better try breaking up the day into parts (morning, afternoon, evening and night). This would permit you to make a few paragraphs as well as adding more information to your story.

You might want to look at the spelling of a few words as well as looking at this sentence:
Quote :
Suddenly, Sunny erupted into a wail, she was hungry,nervously and solemnly, Violet and Klaus gave her some leftover foods.

What are nervously and solemnly qualifying?
Can we really say "leftover foods"?

Overall I am pleased with your work and I am looking forward to reading your final draft.

It is good to see that you are placing yourself in Violet's situation. Well done. Now, I would like to concentrate on writing a descritption of what Violet does in a day. For example:

"I wake up at 6 o'clock again because cold heart Count Olaf demands that we be up before him. I hate this, but it's the only way of keeping him happy. After, eating breakfast, he gives us the day's chore list and vanishes out the door. That is my happiest moment. Once he has gone, my brother, sister and I wash the dishes and clean his room."

I hope this helps you. I am looking forward to reading your final draft.

Write it in a new post.

This is a good effort Peter. I understand what you are trying to do, but your story does not represent a typical day. If we are looking at a typical day we are looking at a day that looks like all the rest.

Rewrite your story placing yourself in Violet's shoes. What do you think Violet does every day? That is what I want to know.

Write your new story in a new post.

Violet woke up on 14th of September. Count Olaf briskly instructed them to do a lot of things. At 8:00 AM, they ate breakfast feeling really glumly. Count Olaf left them a chewy thing, oatmeal, and ghastly blanched carrots. They hated carrots. Yesterday, Count Olaf told them that this day would be a distasteful and grotesque day, and it was. At 11:38 AM, they cleaned the chimmeny which was covered with ash,char,rubbles,and grime. Also, the fixed the creaking door. At 8:47 PM,they rested for about 5 minutes. Violet felt less inventive after doing this, and Klaus lost more enthusiasm. They wanted to mope around. Suddenly, Sunny erupted into a wail, she was hungry,nervous and solemn, Violet and Klaus gave her some food. Now, Sunny's cry didn't echo around the room. But it was 11:27 PM, so they slept.

I forgot about inventing. Seeing my beautiful house and parents in ashes, I missed it all already. I never thought our family would have such bad luck, I thought we was lucky.We was at mr. Poe's house sweeping the floor thinking that our new parent (Count Olaf ) would be nicer and cleaner. Mr. Poe said the news that me and my siblings were going to to Count Olaf's we was happy and sad. When we arrived, our thoughts changed, we was 100% unhappy.Count Olaf was a tall and skinny with a eye tattoo with a house two times dirtier then mr. Poe's .How can we be so unlucky?I wish that it was all a bad dream.He only gave us oatmeal for breakfast .We hate oatmeal.During the day he just gave us hard choirs like fixing a window, and sinned with en eye.But It was only the beginning...

I like what you have written. It is on beat and interesting. That being said you are not focused on a typical day in the life of Violet.

Mr. Poe said ... must be followed by a quotation of what he said, otherwise you should write Mr. Poe told us ...

You need to be writing about a typical day in the life of Violet. Typical means ordinary, repetitive something she does everyday.
