Settings in media are very important as it is essentially the outlines of a story, without outlines the stories borders would sink and be a weird jumbled mess *cough doctor cough who* in How To Kill a Mockingbird its in a sleepy early 20th century town named Maycomb. When kindly Tom Robinson is convicted of rape almost nobody defended him and instead did quite the opposite. However there was but one man in the town who understood that everyone had equal rights and fought tooth and nail for Robinsons freedom. None of this story would be possible if it kept switching time periods or if they were moving around constantly. All of this story is possible because the plot is able to keep firm roots in a small sleepy southern town. There is almost no setting change which makes it easy to follow. Time changes landscape remains the same the whole time, except with the small exception of winter that one time. We keep meeting new characters, some may change but we always know what we’re reading because Maycomb doesn’t change familiar places remain familiar. What I am trying to get at is that setting is the balance in a story if you change it too often there’d be almost no way to distinguish it from another story. The old rural streets the prices even stealing a cows warm milk make it seem so southern its just amazingly rural even people against that genre love it.

Writing Prompt

Tannor Poreda 5/3/13 The character I chose for this prompt is the living embodiment of grammar. He was born during the dawn of man when speech was finally important. He usually takes the form of a British gent or Cthulhu (angered) he takes the latter state whenever someone writes (or says something) so terribly grammatically incorrect it causes him physical pain great enough, that he takes the dark lords form and wipes out whole galaxies at a time. He speaks through the minds of those that are so grammatically perfect they ascend to be a guardian of grammar, these lucky few have the ability to smite those who fail at writing, they are few in number now a days but they are strong proud race. Grammar, lives within the ethereal realm known as Onarydict. There are books that explain this realm but were lost during the great war of Chan. I have seen him in his British gent form and we made a game of taunting the weak Squirrelking after that he told me his name and what he was, I also have a favor of him to be called in anytime. He is so misunderstood now a days because he lost most of his power when Bill Gates created windows and is now sickly. I understood his true power after I personally witnessed what he did to Dante Alighieri (side note, he will be the new grammar after the current grammar passes on) the raw power skill and charisma granted to that man made him a god among men during his time. Grammar may be weak, misunderstood, and uncared for but that does not mean he isn't benevolent to the righteous and malevolent to the ones who belong in 9 gag. If you are sent to 9gag don't’ EVER! expect to come back, those are the blackest depths you can descend if you find yourself there repent thats all you can do....repent.
