Flash fiction story




     Jake was on his back before he knew it when the flash of purple hit him. He immediately knew his reaction had worked. He felt the electricity buzzing around him and his lab caught flames and he just left as all of his assistants burned and tried to call for help trapped under all of the equipment. He ran out into the street and as he thrust his hand the Tacoma exploded in front of him. The SHDA ( Super Human Defense Agency) was there in minutes just as he had counted on when he ran over the plan in his head. As their cars rolled up, a huge fight erupted that endangered the lives of many civilians.
But just as abruptly as Jake had gotten powers, he was shot down to the street with a thud. Everyone just drove away and continued on like every normal day.

    I liked the story, but it would be nice to have some information on his powers. Great job otherwise.

    This is a very interesting story. Try to explain his powers a little more and why he wanted them.

    This sounds like a very interesting idea for a short story. I would try to give a little more background to help the reader know what is going on.

    I really do like the story. The Science Fiction spin was very well planned out. I also enjoy that you had an abrupt ending like Harrison Bergeron.

        Thanksgiving break can be so annoying. We have so much homework and it stresses me out the entire break. I wish we could have a whole break with no homework. But I guess that is just too much to ask for. I get that we need to keep our minds refreshed sometimes but we get so much homework it does so much more than that.        Thanksgiving is also just not my favorite holiday in general. We have to all just sit together and eat and it is so boring. Thursday was definitely my least favorite day of the break. It isn't my moms favorite holiday because eating food we don't especially like isnt our favorite pastime. So this holiday gets on my nerves.

Gun control

I am responding to a Newsday article written by Justin Haskins responding to the Las Vegas shooting and on the issue of gun control. Haskins makes the claim that strict gun laws will not work in this country as they already do not work. He also wants to explain why this will not work    " the Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence, a group that supports enhancing gun-control laws, gave in its recent gun-control report card “F” grades (for having lax gun laws) to five of the six states that have the lowest homicide rates"(Haskins). Haskins points out here that there is correlation between having gun laws that aren't strict and having low homicide rates. He also points out that the six states of Arkansas, Wyoming, Idaho, Montana, Alaska, and West Virginia are the only states that have 50% of households that own firearms. He points out that  these states are among the top ranked for having the lowest homicide rates. He discusses how the statistics from cities that have very low

Dear 12 year old

     Don't quit something that you have started ever. It is something I have tried to make good on for my life and it is a value that is very important to me. It is something many of my coaches have preached and it is something I try to preach to the rest of my family. Quitting is something that seems so easy but it never pays off and is just the easy way out.      This is something that I recommend to a 12 year old because at that point in life everything starts to get harder. When everything gets harder, quitting seems so easy and like that is the best thing to do. The best thing to do I have found is almost never the easiest. If you sort something, you finish it no matter what it is. This is what I would consider to be the best advice that I can give at the time.
