I have a bit of a problem: I have to write or draw a creative assignment utilizing our 15 vocabulary words for this week. The problem is that I can't form an awesome enough topic that is school-appropriate and original, not sampled or anything like that. So I ask you guys to see if you can come up with a couple of topics I can build on. I'll only accept pure action topics. A little bit of comedy sprinkled will be accepted too. Cooperation will be appreciated :)


Here's the vocab words:

abhor, affable, amiss, despondent, entreat, haunt, impel, interminable, irascible, profound, recluse, reverberate, sage, tirade, and tremulous.

Well pretty much every essay I've ever done has been taken from the movie Independence day so I'm not sure if I can help you with being creative...
 
You're in high school. You could make up any old 🤬 and the teacher won't care. Guaranteed.

I'm in middle school :p But for me, I prefer putting a lot of effort in this kinds of stuff. Even there's the chance I don't receive an A :)
 
How about a story that Top Gear might do? Something they haven't done, but something they might do in the future. Something suitably ludicrous. How long is it supposed to be, as those words aren't easy to fit into the same story if it isn't long and detailed.

I have one in mind. It's similar to Lemony Snicket's storytelling.

I attempt to paint a scene in the reader's mind, and then I introduce the author, which is me. Then I ramble off how I'll control the story and what-not, and proceed on to the real deal. The reader is the main character, and he/she picks up a fork. Soon after he/she kills a beast and lives happily ever after. But I drop the actual ending but instead it's blank.


Okay, maybe not the best but I'm experimenting a bit.

And yep, the story needs to be detailed, of course.
 
Not a bad idea telling it that way but it can be pretty tricky to pull off properly and where the reader doesn't spend half the paper figuring out what's going on.

Meh, I think the reader would be able to understand. I pretty much just placed the reader in a forest and they try to escape from it. I titled it Elmis Siichin (See - eh - chin) for some reason :lol:
