Week 6 Story: The Man Who Looked for His Luck

There once were two brothers. One of them was a successful business man while the other was barely making it by, paycheck to paycheck. One day while visiting the office building his brother works in looking for a job he stopped by to see his brother in his office. When he opened the door to the office he saw a man sitting there doing paper work that was not his brother. He has asked, “Who are you?”

The man relied “I am your brother luck.”

Then the brother asked, “If you are my brother luck, what are you doing here?”

He responded, “I do your brother harder paper work to keep him ahead in the game of business.”

The brother thought a moment then ask, “Where his luck was?”

To this he responded, “He is resting in a hotel.”

The man demanded to know where the hotel was, and the luck told him where the hotel was. The brother set off to find his luck. On his way he cam across a man crying. He inquired why the man was crying. The man explained that he did not have enough money to open his business. So the brother told the man once he finds his luck he will ask a way to get the money.

Next the brother came across a chef siting in front of his restaurant looking sad. He asked the chef why he was sad. The chef replied that he had not had a customer in many days. Thinking about this the brother said he would inquire his luck on why this was.

Along the way the brother saw a man in a black suit. He looked frustrated and the brother asked why? The man explained his assassin’s business was not taking off. To this the brother responded I will ask my luck for you.

Finally, he found the hotel and entered to find his luck sleeping on a couch. He woke his luck. He asked why he was not with him and it replied that he was not to wake for a few more years. The luck asked him to leave until then, but the brother wouldn’t until he answered his questions about the situation of the men he met along the way.

To this the luck responded, “For the man who wants a business tell him to get a loan. For the chef, tell him to make food people like not just food that he liked. Finally, for the assassin, tell him to take a contract out on a fool to gain credit.”

After hearing these answers, the brother left his luck. First, he inquires the man who wanted to open a business. He told him to get a loan from a bank. The man thanked the brother and asked if he would be his partner, but the brother declined for he had answers for others.

Next the brother visited the chef. He told the chef to make food for the people not just his own likings. To this the chef responded fondly. The chef asked the brother if he wanted to be his personal food taster and the brother declined for he had one more answer to deliver.

Finally, the brother found the assassin. He told the assassin to take a contract out on a fool. To this the assassin asked for the brother to sign a contract. The brother did this without reading it.

Later that night the assassin killed the brother while he slept with a snipper. The brother died.

Author notes: the original story a poor brother set out for his luck after speaking to his rich brothers’ luck. He ran across several people and told them he would ask his luck what to do in their situations. He found his luck and it responded to each situation. Then he went to each person with the answer and they all offered half their rewards for the answers, but he foolishly declined them. Finally, he answered a wolfs question and the wolf tricked him for he was a fool and ate him. Very odd story and that why I wanted to rewrite it.

The story that seems the most interesting to me was “The Man Who Went to Wake His Luck”. There are many things I can do to this story to make it better un my own way. First, I would modernize some of the aspect of the story such as making his brother a business man rather than a horse farmer. From there I would make his luck into an accountant that keeps his books strait. Then I would tell have the man face different people based out of the modern business world. I would first have him see a man trying to open a new business. After speaking to his luck, the solution for them man will be to get a loan from a bank. He would ask me to be his partner. The next person he would see is a restaurant owner not getting any customers. After speaking to his luck, the solution would be to create food the customers like not just himself. He would ask me to be his food taster. Then I would come across a man sharply dresses man. He would say ask why my assassins’ business is not getting off. After speaking to luck. The solution was to get a contract on a fool so that you show you have the skills to perform. He asks me to give him 500 dollars and I would. That night he kills me while I sleep and make it look like and accident. This is how I would adjust the story and make it my own.

Ghost that Haunts 

image by Fer Gregory 

The story that peaked my interest in wanting to rewrite was from part A was “The Boy Who Became a Bulbul. I like this story for there is so much more that could be done with it. When writing my own version of the story I would keep the intro like the original story where the son and father have a competition of some sort and the father cheats in the end. After the father kills the son I would have cut off the head still and try to feed the meat to the sister. After this I would start to really change things up. I would have the sister bury the remains of the brother near a haunted cemetery so that I would be able to haunt my father and stepmother. This iswhere I would really deviate from the original story. I would take a revenge on my parents starting with my stepmother who originally came up with the competition by taking over a bird and having it sing to her most beautifully. It will cause her to want to hear it again but when she says that I would make her close her eyes and swiftly sow her mouth and eyes shut. This would be revenge for trying to feed me to my sister and coming up with the competition. Next, I would haunt the father and kill him for cheating me in some way. There are many ways I could do this. Far too many to write down. I am set on how to handle the stepmother. To finally end with a somewhat happy ending I would reward the sister for being a good sister. This would be my plan if I want to rewrite this story.

Week 5 Story: The Ghostly Replacement

Close to a ghost wife
image by Lina Blixt


There once lived a man names Spencer and his wife Angelica . They lived in a small house in the mountains with the man's sister Ashley. The Spencer’s sister was always picky about the women he brought home and knew everything about Angelica before he married her.

One day Angelica went down to a small stream that was near their house. On the way she brushed the side of a ghost that had stumbled across the path she would normally take. The ghost took offense to this and took the form of angelica. The ghost then came up behind Angelica right before she reached the stream and took her to nearby tree and buried her next to it. The ghost buried her alive with a hole to breath, for it wanted to make her suffer for touching it without permission. From here the ghost returned back to the house and took Angelica's position.

The ghost did the normal chores around the house that Angelica used to do but more efficiently. Spencer didn’t notice any difference for he was not there during the day when these things were normally done. Ashley on the other hand noticed for she knew the normal routines of Angelica. She had suspicions that is was not Angelica. So after three days she gave the ghost a task that Angelica could normally not do alone to see if she would do it. The ghost of course did it with ease.

Ashley needed more so later that night when Spencer arrived home she told him what happened. Spencer said that this was impossible but listened to his sister. So that evening they both decided to spy on Angelica cooking dinner, which she had finished early the last three days. When they looked in the kitchen they saw Angelica cooking, but she had six arms.

Without thought Spencer jumped out and yell, ”You are not my wife. Where is my wife.”

The ghost was astonished but did what was asked of it.

The ghost took Spencer and his sister to where it had buried Angelica. When arriving and unearthing Angelica they found her in a state of dehydration but otherwise unharmed. They asked why the ghost had done this to Angelica. The ghost explained that it used to be a housewife and when Angelica brushed it the creature became enraged for it used to have the same lifestyle. It wanted to take her place while Angelica suffered in loneliness as it had.

After hearing this all three of them felt pity for the ghost. So instead of sending it on its way they invited the ghost to come live with them as long as it promised to help with the daily chores. The ghost liked this offer and agreed. After this they all lived as one big happy family in the house.

Author notes: the source story is “The Ghost Wife”. In the story there is a man, his wife, and his mother. The wife goes on a late night walk and ran across the ghost that stuffed her in a tree truck and took her place. The mother notices that the wife was not the same and realized it was a ghost. They call in a exorcist to get rid of the evil. In the end they get the ghost to tell him where his wife is and send the ghost away.

Seems fitting for a Ghost Wife 

image by Lina Blixt 

The story that I found most interesting today was “The Ghostly Wife”. The story itself was short and kind of bland but what makes it fun for me is, It is a story I can spice up and make better in my opinion. I will first change one of the characters. I would change the mother to a sister, for my sister is always judging and females I bring around. I will change what the ghost does with the wife for stuffing her into a tree seems very simple. Burying her and saying that she has no chance of survival seems more appropriate. Yes, I know this is very dark. I will also change some of the other things that are noticed in the story that brings them to the conclusion that she is a ghost. I may also change the ending to where she curses the family or house for she wants to stay. I could also make it to where they live with the live happily with the ghost in the end and the ghost provides them help with the special powers that she has. The story seemed simple but I will give it the set up and plot i think it deserves.

a siren attracting a man

by John William Waterhouse 

image site

The stories presented this week were very interesting. What I have gained from previous weeks is I will choose my favorite part of a story or single story from the reading and give note on what I will do with it from now on.  My favorite this week was The Boy whom Seven Mothers Suckled. The story was easy to read so I will not change the language of the story. I will adjust the story by giving it an actual setting. The original story doesn't really give a setting other than they are in a kingdom and then the boy goes to Rakshasi lands. I would add detail of where the kingdom is and where in the kingdom the scenes of the story take place. The story just used vague detail such as the other side to the ocean. I would say what ocean. I would add detail to keep the setting I would keep the story pretty similar but maybe throw in plot twist. First I would have the boy kill the mother of the Rakshasi to prevent her from taking revenge. I would also maybe make it have a twist of an ending where the king realizes it is his son and helps to kill the rakshasi who had blinded him for so long. I could also change the creature that she is while still keeping the plot in tact. I could make here a siren who eats men that has wooed the king in an enchanting human form. These are the things i would choose to do to make this story my own. If I find a better story in the part b I will adjust the notes to fit that for part b.

Satan in the ninth level of hell

Image site: image by Dave Melvin

My site for Nicholas's Descent into the Inferno 

extra credit: Reading notes: Dantes Inferno: part B

The inferno 

 Image by di Fruosino

These are a few notes to help me keep track:
The seventh level is violence all kinds whether acts of violence, self violence(suicide), or violence towards god.
The eighth level is full of liars and schemers. To make sure I understood I looked it up and it the level of fraud. Dante reached this level on the back of Greyon (a creature)
From the looks of it the ninth level of hell is treachery and contains Satan himself


I will write the last two parts of my stories using these final 3 levels of hell with some leeway. I may go back and rethink the way I want to set the story up. I think I will make the final level of hell its own story for it contains treachery and Satan making those who committed the greatest treacheries suffer the most. And I may have the eighth and seventh level together. The thing I may have to do is skip a level or two such as purgatory and gluttony level 3. I would mention them but I don't see the best way to fit them into the story. I know I will not stick with many of the original creatures to make the story my own but I also can not include every detailed areas from the original story for it would make it too long. I will put my own modern twists on the features of hell but keep to the original sins that got people there such as lust greed and so on.But with each levels sin I will add modern people who would be there and the modern ways of committing these sins. I will also add creatures of my own for the sins. i want to keep Cerberus in the mention of level 3. So to tally up, I will start my journey, mention the purgatory and traveling through it, then I will describe lust level which is level 2, and mention gluttony because I believe level 3 is just a subcategory of level 4 which is greed and would be described in detail next. These will be the first story. The second will contain detail on level 5 and 6 which are anger or wrath then heretic. The third story will contain levels 7 and 8 which are violence then fraud. To end I will discuss the ninth level which is treachery which contains Satan himself for betraying god.

The dreaded cyclops

There was once a great man name nicholas. He was a man that even the gods smiled upon. He was on a journey home, by sea, from the great war of troy . He was passing a land that he saw. He had noticed that he and his men were running low on supplies and decided to stop. They brought their boat ashore. When they arrived on the land and they noticed that it was fertile and full of lots of free roaming goats. That nights Nicholas and his men gathered goats and ate their fill.

The next day Nicholas Arose. He grabbed some of his sweetest wine to drink. He set out to look at the land. A little way away from his men he noticed a rock move and many goats leave. After the goats had all left a cyclops the size of fifteen men came out of the cave. Seeing this nicholas returned to his men. He made them all wake up and said, “ The strongest of you men who have no fear come with me.”

Twelve of his men followed. Soon they arrived upon the a cave where the rock had been moved. He and his men entered the cave and waited for the cyclops to come back. The reason he waited is he wanted to speak with the cyclops. He wanted to see if the giant creature was friendly and intelligent or a savage. Later that evening the cyclops arrived and all of the goats that were there also came in with him. Then suddenly after the last goat came it he covered the same with the giant rock. After this the creature saw the nicholas and his men in the cave and then spoke, “he said who has intruded in my cave.”

Nicholas was about to speak but before he could speak the cyclopes said, “It doesn’t matter. I shall eat you.”

Then he grabbed three of the men and gobbled them down quickly. This is when Nicholas realized the creature was intelligent and smart. But nick had a plan to try to outsmart the creature. Sadly the cyclops had ate all but two of his men before he had finished thinking of this plan. Fearing for his last two men he walked over to the giant and said, “Would you like some of this wine I have with me?”

Without even answering the cyclops took the wine and drank it all. Within a 30 minutes the cyclops was completely drunk. At this point Nicholas drew his sword and stabbed the creature’s single eye. It screamed out in pain. Then said, “these creatures are trying to kill me.”

The he removed the rock blocking the cave and told his flock of goats to run. In the chaos of the goats fleeing. Nicholas and his two men ran out. As running a little bit away from the cave, Nicholas Said, “I am Nicholas and I have defeated you foul creature.”

Hearing this the cyclops knew where they were and ran after. Nicholas and his men arrived with the rest of their men. Then they set sail as fast as they could. They left right before the giant arrived. Be full of pride from the escape nicholas turned around and yelled, “you have failed to foil our escape and will now suffer with eternal blindness.”

To hearing this the cyclopes lifted a giant boulder along above his head that he found on the shore and was about to throw it towards where he heard the sound. Then suddenly he slipped and the boulder left his hand and struck his head. The blow killed him instantly. After this Nicholas felt like a king for he believed he defeated the cyclops. From there Nicholas and his men sailed into the sea towards home.


Author's notes: the sources story is from Odyssey. In the story Odysseus and his men were on a journey home from the battle for troy. The came on an island they knew had cyclops. He and his men went into a cave to meet one of the cyclopes while it was out. The creature started to eat his men for his for his meal. Then odysseus tricked the creature and blinded it to save his remaining three men. All they did was blind the creature and it did not die in the end. Only cursed him with the wrath of Poseidon. They also stole his whole flock.

As I had stated in my previous post about the Odyssey the language is more difficult to read and I want to tell a story with a more modern flowing language. The second half of the story that was provided had too much information to write a single story within the limits and I would not want to leave out any of the important parts. I also can not think of a way to leave out parts to make it shorter without skipping important plot parts. There were just way too many character ghost that Odysseus spoke to that had been sent to Hades at death. I think I will write my story based off the first encounter of his adventures. I would like to put my own twist on the encountered with the cyclops as I had suggested in my last post. I will either tell the story from the point of view of the cyclopes or tell the story with a few plot changes. The plot changes may be that the cyclopes actually dies or kills himself by accident or change the way that Odysseus escapes with his men. This is the story I plan on telling and how I plan to change it.

Circe By Wright Barker: link

The language of the stories is not terribly difficult to read but it is an aspect I would would change. I would write the story in a more flowing language that does seem to have such a old language tone to it. I could rewrite the part of the story for the giants or Circe’s point of view. If I were to do this, I would make it look like they were not in the wrong but rather they were doing something that is normal and they see no evil in it. I could also do a retelling of the stories with some plot point changes. An example would be in stead of the giant being blinded he is kill in the escape by his own mistake or clumsiness. I could also make it where Odysseus fails and dies. I could also write the story with a modern touch completely changing the plot but keeping the characters the same. There also seemed to be a lot of repetition in the stories, like when Odysseus is mentioned they always say a few lines after that are repeated on multiple occasions. I see no need for this and would leave this out. The story I will right will have have more of a flowing language but keep the same entertaining aspect of the story even if I do a plot change.

Feedback Strategies

Article: Be a Mirror: Give Readers Feedback That Fosters a Growth Mindset
This article gives useful information on the idea the we need to give feedback that is about the the reader is doing and not just feedback on what is missing. They give five steps on how to give the reader better feedback. Its say Instead of just saying what you think is missing tell them your thoughts on what they are writing about. It does say to not get personal and try to avoid using I. It states to provide constructive thoughts on what they are writing to help them move forward with their work. It say to focus on their process and be specific on what you suggest for them. I believe this would be a great way to get feedback on what one is doing but can have its downfalls. Someone could take the feedback of their work as criticism rather than it being helpful. Also some people like the personal touch that some feedback can provide. Otherwise this process seems like it would help to create great feedback and help someone push forward on their work.

Article: The Difference Between Praise and Feedback
This article give as the title state the difference between feedback and praise. It talks about how some people will provide praise thinking it feedback causing the person/child to continually feed on the praise. It states how instead of praise good feedback can cause someone to do better next time while lots of praise can make them want to not do it anymore or lose interest. I believe there need to be a balance between praise and feedback. We all know good feedback can help us to get better over time but some praise can also boost confidence but as stated too much praise can make us feed off of it. A perfect balance between the two is what is needed for the two.

topic research

For my project I have decide to write my own version of Dante's inferno but with me visiting instead of Dante. I want to break down the inferno into 4 part. The project takes 4 parts so I will give my break Down here.

I will first start with the introduction of who will guide me through the inferno and travel the first 4 levels of the inferno. I will give my own modern touch of the inferno and the sins that got people to those levels. I will also include modern people in those parts and their sins.

I will then write the second part about the travels I will face in the 5th and 6th levels of hell. The same modern touch will apply.

For the first two parts I have written down details of what i want to do for the first two parts in my reading extra credit notes for week three.

For the final two parts I will cover the remaining 4 levels of hell with the same idea of modernism in mind. When I read the second half of the Dante’s inferno unit, I will have written ideas for these parts.

Simple notes to help me keep track (useful to me):

Dante's starts in purgatory

Moves on to level 2 which is lust

The 3rd level contained Cerberus the 3 headed dog and gluttony aka light greed

The 4th level is greed

The 5th level is anger and wrath

The 6th level is hertics or those who follow faith wrong the city of dis

I have just finished reading Dante's Inferno part A. These notes will be based on the project I have chosen to do. The story start off with Dante in a Forest trying to ascend to heaven up a mountain from what I understood. He find the path impossible so he stay where he is at until virgil comes along to show him there is another way and to follow him. He leads dante to the entrance of hell and will guide him through. I would change my guide to a jewish person for it has great biblical irony for in the jewish faith one does not believe in hell. I not sure because i do not want to offend by doing this. I would write my first part of my story to include the first 4 levels of hell. I would start of with a quick intro to purgatory for there is not a whole to lot to say. I would say a lot for the 2nd level which is lust. For the 3rd and 4th level intertwine the two for they are so similar. I would hit a 2 for one. I would write these in a way for modern audiences to understand with what modern sin would have you in that level and name some modern people who are there. I would also put a twist on the punishment for the people in these places. The second part of my story would include the 5th and 6th levels of hell for their are many things that I could write about in modern day to be a part of these levels of hell and many people who could be used as examples of those who dwell on those levels. Putting the modern twist on punishment and people would be the goal to make the story my own.

Week 3 Story: The Serpent's Lesson

The Serpent's Lesson


link to image

Once there was an old man who lived in the life near Jerusalem. He and his wife were becoming ill and knew their death was upon them. The man sent a messenger to notify his son. His son's name was Spencer. His son arrived and he explained to him that him and mother were going to die and that he would need to mourn a week before Passover. Once Passover came he would need to go to the market and buy the first thing a merchant offered him and take care of it. Later that evening the father died.
The son did as he was told. He mourned with his wife and child the week before Passover, then went to the market on Passover. The first person he met was salesperson who offer for him to buy a medium sized box. Spencer asked, “ how much for the box?”
The salesman said, ”1000 gold pieces.”
Spencer knew this was a great cost, but wanted to follow his father’s wishes and bought the box. When he arrived home home, he opened the box and it contained a snake. Right there the snake spoke and said “ I am hungry. Will you feed me?”
Remembering what his father said he fed the snake and started to care for it. It continued to ask for food for several weeks and grew to an enormous size. Finally one day the snake made the a different and biggest request of all. He said, “let me eat your child.”
For some reason spencer following the snakes request and his father wishes he fed the snake his child. The next day spencer and his wife were mourning the loss of their child and the snake asked for them to follow him. He lead them to the edge of a forest. At the edge of the forest the snake began become transparent and morphed into the form of a human. The human form said, “ I am Eve from the old days of the first humans. You have treated with kindness and taken care of me even though I have taken everything from you. For this I will reward you and your wife Spencer by first giving you back your child and many riches of the world.”
Out of the bushes came their child and many creatures carrying many jewels, different foods, and finally rare spices. Then Eve spoke again. She said, “For your kindness and humility these presents shall help to make the rest of your life have less hardship. I do have one request though. I ask that you do the same with your child and I will wipe his memory of these events to test his kindness when he is older.”
Spencer agreed with these terms. After that Eve left into the forest. Spencer and his family lived life very happily after this event in there life. Spencer waited until the day he had to tell his child he was dying and hopes his child will do the same that he did.


Author's notes : The original story that I read was "The Fairy Frog." the story started out similar with a father's death and telling his son to grieve and get something from a market. He got a coffin that contained a frog. They feed the frog until the were on the brink of starvation. They were kind and listened to frog also. Now they did not feed a child to the frog. the original story did not even have child. In the end of the story the frog was Adam but did not turn into a human figure but shrank back into a frog. He did present the family with treasures but did not tell them to continue this tradition through the family. The last change was I changed the characters name from Hanina






bibliography: source story and author:The Fairy Frog by Gertrude Landa

Reading notes:Myth-Folklore Unit: Jewish Fairy Tales, part b

The story I liked most out of all the reading is the fairy frog. Of course, the final of all the stories. It takes 10 to find one I want to rewrite. I believe could make this story a little better for my own writings. The first thing I would attempt with the story is it starts out with a typical “once” start and jump right into the story. I would start the story a better place setting. It doesn’t really describe when or where it is taking place. I would also want to change the animal in the story to something more mythical like a jackalope or something sinister such as a snake. This would peak my interest because jackalopes aren’t real and snakes are sinister, so to follow a snake and be rewarded would be interesting. I would also include another character such as a child of the husband and wife to add to the feeling in the story. To add the feeling the child would be suffering along side the two to create more of a feel for the characters. I could also create a greater twist by using the child as a sacrifice half way through and the parent be rewarded at the end with the child to create a happy ending. These are my notes and what I think I will do with my story later this week.

Reading notes:Myth-Folklore Unit: Jewish Fairy Tales, part A

I noticed when reading these stories, they all had a lesson to be learned. the lesson may have varied based on the type of story. Some of the lessons were about keeping faith to the religion while others were about basic humility. I particularly like the stories where the main characters are based of talking animals or biblical creatures that can speak. This gives the story a feature that stands out to me when I am reading. There are some things that were missing from these stories though. The first thing I felt that they all fell short on is that they don’t really give a setting. By setting I mean they don’t paint a good picture of where they are. The stories seemed to jump right in or give a brief description of where the setting is. For example, it will say they are in forest, but to me a forest could be dark and scary or thin and full of light that penetrates through the trees. It wouldn’t hurt to put a little more into setting up a picture in peoples minds so that the setting is clearer. Basically, a little more detail. Grated these are short stories and one can not give all the details in the world. Something I noticed with all the stories is that there are not very many characters in the story. There are usually about four but since this is Jewish fairy tales and they are biblical they may not need more characters. I usually like to have a vast cast to keep more detail coming out and keep a complex plot, but once again short story comes to mind. To finish my thoughts, I would give a better description in the place setting to these stories, add more characters for more complex plot situation, and make more animal characters. These are things I would want for these stories and mean no offense to anyone by changing them in this way.

Unicorns came up in these fairy tales a lot so a unicorn seems logical for this situation
