As you can see, on the right side of my home page is a section of links marked “Pages.” Now to any of you not familiar with blogging, a page is like a post, only it’s more secluded, if you will, from the rest of the posts. To me seems to give a post a more official and special feeling to it. Right now you see two links, one marked “The Sparetire Safe Final,” and the other “The Sparetire Safe Original;” Both of these links lead to a draft of the story I wrote for Mr. Butterfield’s writing class. I named my story “The Sparetire Safe.” The Sparetire Safe, to be brief, is a fictional short (well actually about seventeen pages long); spoof, to describe it vaguely, of The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes.
The main character is Deadlock Holmes (deadlock: a situation, typically one involving opposing parties, in which no progress can be made). It takes place in England, and… well, I guess I should just let you read it for yourself. But before you do, I just want to let you know that the “The Sparetire Safe Original” link leads to the rough draft version of The Sparetire Safe, and the “The Sparetire Safe Final” link leads to the final draft version. Enjoy!
