lottery originalstoryisnotmine remake shirleyjackson

Okay, so for English class we were told to write a narrative story relating to the story called "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson. I highly suggest reading that first. It is a short story that doesn't take long to read at all.  (If you have read it, continue reading)
  
  My narrative is about my perspective on if either myself or my parents had won the 'lottery'. Again, it is not very long, it will all be in one chapter. I turn this in tomorrow, but I also thought it would be fun to show you how I wrote my narrative.  If you have read the original story and then this one, please tell me what you think! I'd really appreciate it!All Rights Reserved

Blurred Memories by yourloveisallIneed

DISCLAIMER: Chapter one and two are published privately. I tried but cannot publish the first two chapters. The description below summarizes what happens in the first two chapters in less details. Sorry for the confusion as to why the "first chapter" is called "CHAPTER THREE: JUST OUR LUCK". -=+=- My memories have been taken away from me. I am learning how to adapt to my surrounds since I was left in this new town. I was left in a house alone with enough money and resources to survive. Not only was my memories taken away from me, but Wesley as well. I do not remember anything that has taken place in my past. When the twins become the new kids at school I start to feel danger. Oddly, I feel as if I know them yet I do not remember anything about them. Should I trust them? ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Hey everyone! This is my first "book" so please give feedback so I could improve. This book has werewolves in it and will be using the same sort of background as the show, "Teen Wolf." This is also going to be a long story. Other then that, I hope you enjoy, "Blurred Memories." :) - YourLoveIsAllINeed

The Girl He Forgot by MikaBallet13

I'm Alexis. You don't remember me. Nobody ever does. I'm Percy Jackson's sister. Yeah. THAT Percy Jackson. I'm sure you've heard of him. Tall, muscular, sea green eyes? Yep. That's the one. I was kidnapped when I was young. I know, I know, tragic. But there's so much more to it. I don't know who my real parents are. Obviously there's Poseidon, but it gets so much more complicated. This is my story, and it's far from a fairytale. *LOOK OUT FOR SEQUEL "THE DAUGHTER HE FORGOT" ON MY PROFILE. COMING SOON :)*

Rose [ A Revenge Story ] by FallOverLaughing

Rose (Revenge Story ) On my sixth birthday my daddy asked me what I wanted I said a pony. On my seventh birthday my mommy asked me what I wanted, I said I wanted to be a princess. On my eight birthday my grandma and grandpa asked me what I wanted, I said I wanted my mom and dad back. On my ninth birthday I was put into care. On my tenth birthday no one asked me what I wanted. Same with the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth. So on my fourteenth birthday I asked myself what I wanted. I come up with a one word answer, revenge. (Please be warned this story is not for the faint hearted 18+) I wanted to have it under romance / mystery but they don't have that so yeah. So I think this story has been made privet. I am sorry about this. It was not by my doing, if you would still like to read it follow me and add to your library again. Sorry. All images in book including book cover belong to their rightful owners.

This Is How I Learn To Say No by 1HopeAndreaMikaelson

"Fuck the apologies Done being sorry for wanting the things that I want I broke my back carrying baggage For strangers who only ever did me wrong Was it more appeasing when I was just pleasing? Look good on my knees Sucks you're never gonna get me back again When I got healthy, did that make you hate me? And now, I'm never losing sleep, I'm over it This is how I learn to say no Take your pretty words and go choke People talk shit say they're gonna get better I hold my breath I can't hold it forever This is how I learn to say no, oh All of the butterflies turned into vicious lies I'd rather be on my own Tired of people being sad Told my mom to leave my dad Sometimes you just gotta go" In which a girl is reborn as Davina Claire and falls in love with Kol Mikaelson.

I died. But that's wasn't the end of the story (obviously). It was actually the beginning. Because, apparently, I was too young to die so I had a second chance. A second chance at living. The problem? I was reborn as Elena Gilbert, and I don't know how that's gonna play out. . . . Eh. We'll see. At least I know it will be fun! Her life was anything but boring! ༄ [TVD-SI-REBORN] [S1-?] [COMPLETED] [SEQUEL-TWO GIFTS FROM GODS] [warning: elena bashing with no real cause (i wrote this a couple years ago when i was first starting and it's far (far) from great]

The Phoenix Girl (Editing) by SwishyMermaid

"Have I ever told you the story of The Phoenix Girl?" My Grandfather asked. "No, you have not," I said. My Grandfather was like any other old man, but his mind was far from ordinary. All grandfathers are alike, each one tells you stories about wars or the good old days. But not my Grandfather. He was a storyteller, but his stories were always different. He would just come up with the stories, and they would be so enrapturing to me. It hooked me from the beginning until the moment I had to leave. But then one day, he told me a story that would change everything for me and my Father. This story called the Phoenix Girl. It's a story of a girl who goes through hardships and struggles in her everyday life. They punish her for things she has no control over, but then she faces it all. She is reborn from the ashes of the flames that had consumed her. She is stronger. But what if this isn't just some story that my grandpa came up with? What if something connected her to my family? What will happen now that the truth is out there? Why was this story so important? What will change? Who is this Phoenix Girl? [Please note that this story is complimented but is under heavy editing at the moment]
