Anna Knight carried on with a long and prosperous life. Amid her lifetime, she finished numerous things and did a considerable measure of extraordinary things for the congregation and her group. She was conceived in 1874 in Mississippi, yet her family was initially from Georgia where her mom was conceived a slave. The white man who purchased the family was named Knight, and he moved the family to Mississippi. Clearly, he likewise gave the family their name.

he Sovereignty and Goodness of God: Being a Narrative of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson. Mary Rowlandson lived in Lancaster, Massachusetts with her three children, her husband, and around 50 families, many of which were either killed or captured during the attack. Based on Mary Rowlandson’s writings it seems she was quite firm in her puritan beliefs, for example, strict adherence to studying the bible and god on the day of Sabbath was a central puritan belief, and while in captivity Mary was reflecting on how careless she was of gods holy time referring to the Sabbath, and how “evil” she had walked in god’s eyes. Mary believed that her fellow puritans were faithful to their god until their last moment, and she hoped
From the beginning, she showed her prejudice by referring to the Indians as “wolves” and “beasts”. Arguably, one can make the point that she had just lost her sister, friends, she was injured, and she was carrying her wounded child. But can we trust a description of the Indians that is filtered through the lens of Puritan prejudice? Of course, there is a larger question than whether or not Mary Rowlandson was justified in her hostility to the Indians; an attitude which, by the way, she did moderate sometimes during her ordeal. But the real question is whether we can trust the information she presents about Indian behavior and practices while she was a captive. Did she, intentionally or not, twist the facts? The expectation is that the person
Miss Nikki McKinley gets her ideas across most obviously by choosing bold colours (which are mainly warm but she used cold colours as well, varying her use of colours especially when she was younger) and earthy tones (although as I have mentioned before, she occasionally chose to use more bright and vibrant colours), which give a clear and bold statement. Also, her use of a wide range of media and materials, including: Pencils (colouring and normal), textiles, paint, mosaics, oil pastels, wire, charcoal, photography, digital manipulation (via Adobe Photoshop), clay (for ceramics), hessian, pen, ink, graphic design, boutique and drawing inks, all show the variety of ways in which she is capable of successfully

The day Grace Grimshaw threw up all over my car is one that I will never forget. One summer morning, I went to pick up Allison Downen and Grace after cross country practice. We had been wanting to go over to Wildwood, Missouri to try and find Nelly’s house, but right before we leave Grace says she feels funny. She eventually just falls asleep in the back seat and everything is fine, until about an hour later when she wakes up. Grace sits up straight and says she is going to be sick. She then proceeds to pick up a Tupperware container I had on the floor and asks if she can puke in it; I slam on the brakes and say absolutely not. I pull into a subdivision with houses the size of Buckingham Palace and tell Grace to open up the door and go for
In her introductory novel, Deliver Her, Patricia Perry Donovan turns the page in her writing career, moving from journals and a concentration on non-fiction to something more creative and in novel form. As the back cover of the book highlights, this composition is about “A daughter’s grief. A mother’s desperation. An endless highway of deception.” This book is easy to follow and not only entertains but also leaves the reader with food for thought at the very end.

Alias Grace caught my eye because I watched another show inspired by Margaret Atwood’s novels, called The Handmaid's Tale. Alias Grace is a short series about a woman murderer, Grace Marks, who is referred to as a murderess. Usually shows depict a man playing the role of a murderer, and that’s what makes this show so different from other murder mysteries. It is set in the 1850s and during this time, women were not taken seriously and their roles were mainly maids and housewives. It was such a big deal that a woman actually murdered someone, or was thought to have murdered someone anyways. There are many pieces to the murder and to Grace’s story through foreshadowing and flashbacks.

Patricia: In general….yes… he endured it for the joy that was set before him, so, when you go through your days of fasting, studying, praying, isolation, research and read the bible….. Do it all for the joy that is set before you, the joy of more independence, because you have shown yourself to be a responsible young adult. The joy of going to the movies with Sarah, because you both can be trusted to do what is right without your parents watching, the joy of being respected as a young adult and not as a misguided child, and the joy of knowing you can achieve your goals if you keep your focus, and see everything you start to its end! Think on those things, son, by doing so you are claiming your victory until it comes! Understand young man?
