Final draft

Hello, my name is William Shakespeare. I am indeed an intelligent person because I have written tremendous amounts of stuff, so much that people think I got help from others! Wrote 38 plays, 154 sonnets, 2 epic narratives I have (Pressley). I can confidently say that almost no one will ever be able to mimic my writings because of it’s greatness and originality. I use my own style of writing that nobody can follow, and my famous writings are acknowledged by almost all the citizens on Earth. I shall be generous enough to let you get taste a bit on my styles, writings, and my pals. The four main styles of writings I use are Metaphor, Inversion, old-english words, and Interruption. I use metaphors a lot because they are very useful. It not only shows comparison, but it also defines symbol. These metaphors also make the readers ponder for a second, and to think what I’m trying to say (Marmorstein). The language that I used in all my books are peculiar because it is the ‘Elizabethan language’. I always twist the words up because of it’s way. The ‘old-english words’ that makes people flip through the dictionary are the old words. For example, instead of saying ‘does’, I say ‘doth’, instead of ‘therefor’, I say ‘Thus’. Interruption means to interfere with the subject. When I write things, I love to include things between the subject and the verb, which is going against the laws of grammars (Marmorstein). This is because I prefer to put lots of details and thoughts between the subjects and the verbs. As I have already stated, I did write some very famous writings such as Hamlet, Midsummer Night’s Dream, Romeo and Juliet, King Lear, The Tempest, Merchant of Venice, and more (Pressley). Out of these stories, my favorite ones are Romeo and Juliet and Merchant of Venice. Romeo and Juliet is about two couples from two households. Those households are the worst-time enemy ever. However, a boy called Romeo and a girl called Juliet falls in an unbreakable-love, but their parents disapproves it with all their might (Pick). I also gave a very tragic ending where Romeo kill himself when seeing the ‘dead body’ of Juliet. Also, Merchant of Venice was a very fun piece to write, because even I got excited when I was writing the trial part where Shylock had to cut only 10 Ib of Antonio’s skin without dropping a single blood molecule (Pick). The theme of Merchant of Venice was friendship and love. Also, it was one of the rare with a happy ending; I don’t usually write stories with happy endings. The task of publishing First Folio would’ve been impossible if there weren’t any of my pals around. Some of my important pals who helped me a lot are John Heminges and Henry Condell (Chambers). They were main actors in the play King’s Men which I wrote. John and Henry put together all the plays I’ve wrote and have made it into a famous book called, First Folio (Collier). One of my friends John, was actually a very famous Renaissance actor. He acted in several famous different plays around I have earned enough fame, glory, and honor. However, I couldn’t have reached this without my partners or the unique writing styles, I wouldn’t have made it up to the place I am right now. These days my works are considered as one of the Best because of my vivid characters and my talented skills in writing.
