“The wrong number”

Part 2

Dear reader,

            I am really looking forward to writing this blog post.  There is much for you to expect in this post.  One thing that you can expect is   a brief summary of the story.   I am now going to describe the plot of my story.  Two girls live in an average suburb in about the 90’s.  They are in high school.  Their troublesome brother moves to their town from the city.  They begin making prank phone calls one night.  One house that they call is on Fear Street and they overhear a murder taking place.  They then go over to the house to find a dead body.  The murderer finds them in the house and the brother picks up a knife to hold off the murderer.  This knife just happens to be the murder weapon.  They escape the scene and later when the police are called, his fingerprints are found on the knife.  He is charged with the murder of Mrs. Farberson. The rest of the story is the two girls trying to prove the brother innocent.  One of the girls name is Deena, the kid charged with the crime is her brother.  Deena is in high school and she is kind of quiet.  Her best friend jade is the other character.  She is in high school and she is very popular and good looking.  Jade and Deena are best friends.  Chuck is the troublesome brother that is charged with the murder.  Mr. farberson is the murderer.  Detectives Monroe and Frazier investigate the murder.  And bob McCormick is the kid who fights chuck in school.  The theme in my story is consequences.  This theme applies to this story because the girls receive consequences for their action of making prank phone calls.  Their consequence was having to deal with their brother being blamed for the murder of Mrs. Farberson.

Reflection

I chose character sketches because I felt like I could do a good job at showing details and giving the reader a mental picture of what the characters would look like.  One difficulty I had while doing the character sketches was that I am not very artistic and I find it hard to make my drawings look good.  I chose the ten ways to know if… because I had some good ideas to complete it and I thought I could do a good job.  I didn’t have any difficulties completing this part.  I chose the wanted poster because I knew that I could do a good job on it.  A difficulty I had was choosing the picture for the murderer because I didn’t have many appropriate options.
