Mystery Elements

Alrighty kids so here is a weekly (semi weekly?) blog post. Today I'm going to be discussing some elements found in the mystery genre.

Sooo one element that is almost always in mystery is a detective. I mean, who else is gonna solve who killed the manager of the gas station that sells hot sausages, who was actually a spy.
Another element is obviously clues. I mean, detectives need clues. For instance, they try to find the killer, and while they are searching the gas station they find a hair or a small meaningless object such as a lipstick or a pencil that belonged to them. Or if they're lucky an ID but I don't think a killer is dumb enough to bring that.

Personally I like this genre I think its interesting. Its probably in my top 5 favorite genres (Comedy is first no doubt) Its cool and mysterious (duh)

I have watched a lot of mystery shows, like Get Smart which is a spy show. I haven't seen any mystery movies, besides To Kill a Mockingbird which kind of deals with mystery but its not classified in that category.

So yeah better get to thinking of an idea for a mystery book so gotta blast!

Fantasy Assignment Review


So our class had a fantasy story assignment and of course I had to make some big idea so I didn't even finish it (but I'm close I have like a paragraph or two left) but I do like how it turned out. Some things I had to cancel out because they didn't make sense but otherwise I did like the assignment, even though I don't like fantasy books. It was fun to look up a bunch of interesting words and things to help with my story so there's some points. I lowkey slacked off some because I thought I'd be able to finish it, which I almost did, but that was not smart because a lot of people finished before me and woops.
Furthermore (hey look i used a smart word) I did like this project, and I thought it was really fun.
