Week 8 Comments and Feedback




Like I mentioned in my previous blog post, this style of class is totally new to me. I've taken online classes before, but none of them had any interaction with the rest of the class. It felt really isolated. This online mythology class has a creative way to interact that combines peer-editing and meeting the classmates on a level similar to that of a traditional classroom setting. The comments on my posts so far were encouraging and uplifting, and it's funny how nearly everyone was impressed that I'm from Germany. I think I'm pretty basic, but after reading that I got a little confidence boost. Sometime when I give feedback myself I worry if I'm being too harsh or not. I tend to be too honest sometimes since I think being overly sweet and generic sometimes comes out as ingenuine. I can't wait for people to start commenting on my project story once it's published!

Week 4 Story: Theron and Ana

Theron and Ana Theron's Charm and the Anger of  Coeus In a certain college campus there lived four brothers of surpassing charm. Although all of them were really lovely, only one bore such beauty and intellect that the whole town was under his spell. Anyone who met him was dumbfounded at his alluring charisma and couldn't fathom a mortal to be so god-like in looks but in knowledge as well.  The curiosity of skeptics drove people from neighboring towns to see the statuesque heartthrob. He mesmerized men and women of all ages with his advances in engineering and science research. Crowds of eager students in awe at his divine looks. His charm afforded the hearts of many, of which he could achieve nearly anything he desired at arm's length. Rumor seized across the nation that he must be the god Coeus.  Coeus, the god of intelligence, turned to his secret lover with rage.  "Venus, behold me, the source of all knowledge of imperial divinity is undermin
