RE: Kelsey

This quote is from Kelsey Mckeon's free response titled Little Princess.
The princess was the outcast; no one talked to her because she just was not a normal teenager. While the princess was moping in the corner about what was supposed to be a spectacular night, she was tapped on the shoulder by....

After reading Kelseys post I was both enthralled by the story but then again it pissed me off. She did such a great job getting the reader into the story and into the life of this princess. She made you feel as if you were living in the shoes of the princess by using lots of sensory details and lots of emotion. But what angered me about the story is that there wasnt an end. I read the story very excited to find out how it could end but Kelsey left it up to the readers imagination. After reading it multiple times of come up with many conclusions such as maybe it was a prince, or maybe it was her parents who found out she left, or maybe it was just someone asking her of she could move but I still do not know. But then I thought about it and Kelsey wrote the story just for that very reason. She didnt want to tell the ending because there is no fun or imagination in that. She painted a picture in the minds of the readers and let them take that picture in any which way their minds could ever imagine.

  1. Good point! You should try finishing the story yourself as a post!
