Deliverable 4

I have accepted that I am a failure. I did not complete my deliverable in time. I got 5 out of 6 chapters written. I attribute this failure to the fact that I had 3 weeks to get a full act done. Even with trying to get ahead by starting on it early, I was unable to complete the full thing. I intend on finishing it this weekend. 

I will now talk about my birthday because I am writing this blog and can therefore talk about whatever I want. But I'll be reasonable. February 18th, I turned 17. As for relevant gifts, I got a Stephen King book about writing and some really cute Merlin bookmarks to accompany it. I intend on reading the book, obviously. Hopefully, it will give me the knowledge to be a better writer. 

So I talk about writing a lot. But this project has never been about just writing. It's about history and French too. So while I'm trial and erring with writing, I'm also learning history and French. Those two are probably easier to study. For French, I take French 3 at school so I learn something new every day and have to go fix something in the novel. It can be frustrating but it's educational. The history is different. I have an American history class but considering we spent about a week on WWI before having a little quiz on the information, I don't depend on school for the details.

Instead of using just the one chapter from a relatively generalized textbook, I keep Google handy and use it quite often. I use it for the major events of the war to the little details of individual people. I have a lot of books for reference: WWI books, fashion books, battle books. I have so many resources that help me learn every day. 

Well I'm supposed to include a picture that proves i completed my deliverable. Since I didn't actually do that, I'm gonna take a rain check. 

Thanks for reading. Wish me luck.
