Written by David Canfield @davidcanfield97 Photographs by Elisabeth Caren @ecarenphoto On a sunny May afternoon, EW’s Los Ange- les offices are catching literary fever. Five buzzy debut authors—Taffy Brodesser- Akner, 43; Sarah M. Broom, 39; Linda Holmes, 48; Lisa Taddeo, 39; and De’Shawn Charles Winslow, 39—have arrived, con- verging for their first major round of press. The mood is excited, anxious, slightly overwhelming. The publishing world has changed hugely over the past decade, pro- nounced to be near-extinct more than a few times, only to find a post-Kindle (and Instagram-worthy) renaissance. And here are the people behind the stories affirming just how alive books remain, whether they’re hitting the heart of our cultural moment, vitally reframing histories, or unfurling the kind of sparkling romance perfect for a lazy summer day.

  • Ever Since Humans Gained the Ability of Higher Thought People Have Been Creating and Telling Stories
    English 12 Final Essay Choice 1 Ever since humans gained the ability of higher thought people have been creating and telling stories. These stories are passed on from one generation to the next and at some point become more than stories; they become tradition, culture, and history. Long after the original writers or creators of the stories are dead and all but forgotten, the stories remain and become a legacy. With each year that passes by the stories grow, they are modified or retold a different way, and as they grow those stories become more rooted in the cultures of those who share them. Fairytales are some of the most widespread and evident stories in cultures; they manage to catch the interest of almost all readers, and have grown far more than the average story. One such beloved fairytale is “Little Red Riding Hood,” which has seen many different authors and titles throughout its existence. The story of Little Red Riding Hood began as tales told to children, passed on through word of mouth alone. The first written version, which has come to represent the oldest and original story, was “Little Red Riding Hood” by Charles Perrault. The tale followed the characteristics of all fairytales; a handful of characters, a simple and short storyline, and a lesson to be learned. The characters were: a young and pretty girl known only as Little Red Riding Hood, a wolf that had the ability to speak, and an old and sickly grandmother of Red. The tale mentioned Red’s mother and woodsmen briefly, but their only purpose was to guide the story, they did not significantly interact within the story.
