Hemingway Stories

(The cover art is mine) Things aren't what they seem when a scientific research company comes to the Fitzgerald Academy For The Gifted and asks for volunteers to "join" them. They're especially strange when it begins to change some of the students. It begins to grow even stranger when a group of suspicious students begin to investigate, and some of them don't aren't enjoying it as much as others. But what has been going on? Why are people needlessly joining, even rebelling against it? Well, you will just have to listen to the story from the point of view of clarinet major Michael Jones as he tells you the story of the rebellion against the Company. Taking place in a not-so-distant-future where technology is becoming more and more advanced on an academy so big that it's on its own island, this is the story of "The Company."

Seven years after where Ernest Hemingway's "Hills Like White Elephants" ends. Short story.

"If you give a person silk flowers, the flowers won't die." A minimalist and dialogue heavy story inspired by Hemingway's works.

This is a pastiche of Ernest Hemingway's "Hills Like White Elephants." I wrote this for my IB Junior English class, as well as the analytical essay also published here (analyzing both the original story and my pastiche). I also included a section discussing my grade on the pastiche and essay. If you have a similar assignment, I hope this can help you out!

Young couples discover that Shakespeare's Hamlet is a reckless, disturbed, free-spirited youth like the Byronic nonconformists of romantic literature

This is my essay about a theme, perserverance, from The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemmingway. You can read this even if you haven't read the actual book. Tell me what you think! :)

Excerpt: none because this is very short and would ruin it! This short story inspired by Hemingway asks the questions: What happens when we spend our entire lives focussed on one path and never diversify? What do you do once your whole life is stripped away from you? Is choosing a future for our children early on truly an advantage? Read the AN for more information. Please please please comment about what you think the symbolism is, what you think truly happened, your opinion on the issue at hand, etc. I would absolutely love to hear from you!

A love story in 156 words.

Skoro postrzegasz pewne wartości jako cenniejsze, to czemu tego nie okazujesz? Filip niedługo po skończeniu współpracy z Kubą, coraz częściej myśli o tym czy coś, co ich łączyło, miało głębszy sens. Przez przypadek znowu się spotkają, jednak czy zapomną o tym zdarzeniu? A może odnowią oschłą i specyficzną więź, która ich łączyła? "Martwię się o niego. Czy to nadal przyjaźń? Czy to kiedykolwiek była przyjaźń?"

Aspiring writer has Papa appear in his life time and time again

- [...] A jakbyś dostał kopertę z datą swojej śmierci otworzyłbyś ją? - zapytała... To pytanie było dziwne, nie rozumiem jakim cudem ona ma czas myśleć o takich rzeczach... - Tak, zrobiłbym to. - odparłem jednak pewnie. - A gdybyś dowiedział się, że to już jutro? - zastanowiłem się chwilę i bez wątpienia zrobiłbym co zawsze chciałem zrobić. - Zrobiłbym to [...]
