The script presents with an intriguing premise about good-hearted werewolves, who take on the role of protecting humans from evil werewolves. The concept has merit. Scripts about werewolves remain popular, but to be successful the script needs to offer the audience something new and original as a hook. The idea of them being “the protectors” feels a solid hook. With that said, the script would benefit from more development in the area of structure, pace, tension, character development, as well as dialogue. The opening sets up the world of werewolves. The ordinary world is established and Troy is clearly identified as the protagonist. Initially, the goal is clear and the stakes are fairly high.

Ray is the most conflicted about his identity, but he shows up late in the script, then a lot of time is spent with him at the end, only to see him die. This doesn’t feel satisfying either.

Presently, the dialogue sounds generic and on the nose. Most of the characters tend to have the same voice and speak straightforward with what’s on their minds. Try to add subtext Avoid obvious exposition. Avoid conversational chatting. Here are a few examples of weaker dialogue: “You’re going to be fine. What’s your name?” “Thank you. That sounds fine.” Avoid sounding redundant. Sloan one moment says, he wants Troy examined and then a few moments later he repeats this, “We’ve got to examine him…” Barbara telling Troy she loves him is another example of on the nose dialogue and a bit overly dramatic. Try to make the voices sound more distinctive from each other. For example, several different characters use the term “criminal” in the script. Change this up. A cop would say things like “perp” or they would use a derogatory

I’m not your perfect Mexican daughter by Erika L. Sanchez was a book that discussed conflicting topics. This book was a young adult fiction novel with 354 pages. It was about Julia Reyes and her life after her “perfect” sister died and her journey in finding out how imperfect she actually was. Consequently many opinions can be made for this story. In this book I liked how honest the story is.
Driven by the belief that space was bequeathed to them, the Native Americans feel justified in defending their land against the growing encroachment of the white man as the American landscape unfolds. Their motive is the premise that a higher authority has granted them the right to the space, and that the Great Spirit has created the landscape exclusively for them. Fueled by the formation of conflict over land, the Great Ottawa Chief, Pontiac, in his speech at Detroit, seeks to persuade the tribes, including the Ottawa, Huron, and Pottawatomi to agree to resistance. Invoking the words of the Delaware prophet, Neolin, Pontiac recounts the vision which he believes justifies resistance. Neolin urges the tribes to sever all relations to the customs

Chris McCandless was in his early 20’s, he was the kind of that guy that wanted to learn and experience life without all of the material things. He wanted to be independent from his parents and friends so Chris did something that would be insane for most of us humans but to him, it wasn’t. He went into the wild of Alaska for months, in fact, McCandless even thought he could make it out alive at the end of his journey. As a matter of fact, he was known as being a risk taker and enjoyed being out and about in the nature side of the world. Many would believe that Chris McCandless went into the wild to purposely kill himself; however, I myself believe that McCandless did not do it purposely.
In this short story, it is not the werewolf that is beastly it is the human themselves, which is expressed by characterization, conflict, and symbolism in “The Lay of the Werewolf” by Marie de France. First, Marie de France characterizes
Twilight novel shows more differences than similarities from the old vampire literature. In Twilight, the main characters are good vampires. They have several human qualities and a conscience that sets them apart from the traditional vampires than were more supernatural beings than humans and with no conscience. Meyer has created vampire characters that make the main vampires more like humans by passing on human characteristics into their life of vampires. Consequently, there is a thin line between the world of the vampires and the real world.

Wolves, when in groups, are universally threatening and recurrently feared. This being known, they are often portrayed as an evil or opposing force. Although, on occasion, they have also been known to be referred to as “noble creatures who can teach us many things.” (http://www.wolfcountry.net/) But consequently, despite the popular interpretation of wolves and their characteristics, each story presents its own interpretation of their many characteristics.
