So over the past few days, I've been staying up so late I pass out for exhaustion and stressing myself so much over the face I have a really important paper due tomorrow....well, technically today, for my English class. Essentially what it's about is you get to pick a famous writer of your choice and analyze how their life influenced their work. This "writer" could be anything from a poet to a lyricist to a novelist to a short story writer to a play-write. They just had to be a creative writer.I thought this was interesting, so I chose the author of a book I'm currently obsessed with called Wish You Were Here by Vincent M. Wales. It's about this boy names (consequently) Vincent that lives in modern-day Pennsylvania. Well, technically about 10 years ago since they still listened to cassette tapes.Anyways, he is magically transported to another world by a witch because she wants him for his dick. I'm not kidding! She literally brought him to her world just to have sex with him so she can have kids. Anyways, she erases his memory and deserts him in this world. The story is essentially about him living in this world full of mythical creatures like elves, witches, gnomes, mages, trolls, giants, etc. and meeting people that become good friends of his and three girls he falls in love with (one of which turns out to be his daughter he unknowingly had with the witch). He goes on many adventures, goes through a lot of shit, acquires one hell of a fortune that would instantly but Bill Gates to shame, has to kill his son (that is his daughter's twin) that is desperately trying to kill his friends to torture him, then kill his father because his sister fell in love with Vincent and essentially goes on to be a legend. Really epic shit man. Half of the paper is supposed to be about the author himself, but unfortunately not much is known about him since he's only known at Ren Fair and through the fantasy novels community. So majority of the paper is going to be on the book itself. Which sucks. Big time. Why? I hate analyzing shit. It gives me headaches and I'm usually wrong anyways. Fortunately, he makes it easy to understand. It's essentially what he would love for his life to be like when he plays D&D. Easy enough. You understand the author and you instantly get the book, and knowing what I know about him, it really does make sense. THANK GEEZUS HE MADE THIS SO EASY FOR ME! Most of this stress is due to one little itty bitty factoid that's just a tad bit important. You know, just a wee bit. Yeah, that's because I haven't even finished reading the book yet. I just know what happens because I have the bad habit of reading ahead. I really should get back to that and then b.s. my way through my paper. I really hope I don't epically fail my paper.
