  • Short Story Originally Appeared in the Anthology “Girls Night Out,” Edited by Sarah Mlynowski and Published by Red Dress Ink in 2006
    Reunion Reunion By Meg Cabot This short story originally appeared in the anthology “Girls Night Out,” edited by Sarah Mlynowski and published by Red Dress Ink in 2006. Other contributors included Emily Giffin, Marian Keyes, Cecelia Ahern, and Kristin Gore. All author proceeds from the collection went to War Child. The book is now out of print, and rights to the stories have since reverted back to the authors. I’m happy to offer this unedited version of mine, “Reunion,” for my readers to enjoy for free. This short story is part of the New York Journal “Boy Series,” Boy Next Door, Boy Meets Girl, and Every Boy’s Got One, and is told exclusively in emails. 2 Reunion To: All Sent: April 25, 2005 11:45AM Fr: Scooter Potts <[email protected]> Re: Bloomville High School Class of ‘95 Reunion Bloomville High School Class of 1995 10 Year Reunion Hey, fellow Panthers!

Though I still see some of you regularly (remember, there’s a 10% discount for BHS grads here at Bloomville Motors), it will be great to catch up with those of you who left Indiana for such far flung places as New York City (Jo Buchanon’s mom says that Jo’s band, the Raving Lunatics, got a real positive review in The Village Voice for their first ever gig at the Wa Wa Hut)!

  • Eragon Chapters 1-3 1.Eps
    Excerpt from ERAGON Book One in the Inheritance cycle by Christopher Paolini DISCOVERY ragon knelt in a bed of trampled reed grass and scanned the Etracks with a practiced eye. The prints told him that the deer had been in the meadow only a half-hour before. Soon they would bed down. His target, a small doe with a pronounced limp in her left forefoot, was still with the herd. He was amazed she had made it so far without a wolf or bear catching her. The sky was clear and dark, and a slight breeze stirred the air. A silvery cloud drifted over the mountains that surrounded him, its edges glowing with ruddy light cast from the harvest moon cradled between two peaks. Streams flowed down the mountains from stolid glaciers and glistening snowpacks. A brooding mist crept along the valley’s floor, almost thick enough to obscure his feet. Eragon was fifteen, less than a year from manhood. Dark eye- brows rested above his intense brown eyes. His clothes were worn from work. A hunting knife with a bone handle was sheathed at his belt, and a buckskin tube protected his yew bow from the mist. He carried a wood-frame pack. The deer had led him deep into the Spine, a range of untamed mountains that extended up and down the land of Alagaësia. Strange tales and men often came from those mountains, usually boding ill. Despite that, Eragon did not fear the Spine—he was the only hunter near Carvahall who dared track game deep into its craggy recesses.

  • A Concise Study on English Syntax
    1 THE FANTASY FORMULA IN CHRISTOPHER PAOLINI’S ERAGON Rif’ah Inayati* Abstrak: Sebuah karya sastra dapat dikategorikan sebagai sebuah karya sastra populer apabila berhasil mendapatkan perhatian dari masyarakat luas. Masalah yang muncul kemudian adalah bagaimanakah cara untuk menganalisis karya sastra tersebut? Apakah dapat dilakukan dengan cara yang sama dengan yang dilakukan pada apa yang disebut sebagai ”High Literature”? Oleh sebab itu, studi ini ditujukan untuk menganalisa sebuah karya sastra populer yang ditulis oleh Christopher Paolini, berjudul Eragon dan menemukan formulanya. Kata Kunci: Fantasi, Karya Sastra Populer, Convention, Invention, Archetypes, Formula Introduction Nowadays, many people regard literary work as their way to have a relaxation, either high literature or popular literature. High literature refers to literary works that can only be criticized by people who have a good understanding on literary works. Meanwhile, literary work can be regarded as popular literature when it gains a good appreciation from the society. Then, the question is, can we use the same method in analyzing those two kinds of literatures? In this case, this study will analyze one of popular literature by figuring out the formula that constructs it. Formula literature is a kind of literary art. Therefore, it can be analyzed and evaluated like any other kind of literature. There are two central aspects of formulaic structures, their essential standardization and their primarily relation to the needs of escape and relaxation. Standardization, in important ways, is the essence of all literature. Standard conventions establish a common ground between writers and audiences. Without at least some form of standardization, artistic communication would not be possible.
