Water and Salt Main Characters:  A magician The king The king's daughter The magicians' son Plot: The king had 3 daughters and he asked them how much they loved him. The two oldest daughters answered well but the youngest said "salt and water" which outraged the king so he wanted her executed. They secretly killed a dog instead and had the youngest daughter escape to a cave where a magician found her and took her in. His son fell in love with her and they were going to get married so they invited the king but they made sure to not give the king any salt or water to teach him a lesson.

My favorite graphic from this week's announcements was on Monday .  Spelling Humor: Myth Blog

The videos made me really emotional and I'm glad that they made these videos to destigmatize mental illness because I have heard many comments from people who don't understand and they disregard mental illness as people who are just trying to get attention or are overreacting. I wish I could truly feel what they feel so that I could help! My favorite videos were Cooper Lund's and JD Baker's videos. Graphic about Mental Illness:  ChicagoNow

I am really happy with the progress I have made so far. It is crazy to think how much time as flown by already. I end up doing the assignments whenever I can find time so I don't have an exact routine I follow every week. I am enjoying all of the assignments a lot! I like doing the growth mindset extra credit options the most! For the second half of the semester, I hope to make more time to work ahead. I also want to explore new ways to tell stories because I have been sticking to the same basic changes for all of my stories. Persistence:  Livestrong

Overall, the feedback I have received is pretty helpful. The most helpful comments are the ones that suggest ways for me to improve character development and dialogue. My feedback that I have left for others has improved over time because I started out with compliments only and started to learn how to give back useful feedback. I have definitely been inspired multiple times by other stories that I have read. I think I am getting to know people because I get to read their introductions and I can hear their voices in their writing. I can get a sense of personality from their stories. I am happy about my introduction and blog because I am an open book so it's easy to get to know me from reading them. I want to be able to give better suggestions to others that they can actually incorporate or use for their story. I am happy with my blog the way it is so I'll most likely not make any changes.
