~5 pages for each ~12 words per line?

YoW first prompt; did okayy

Didn't like I&B prompt, I couldn't think of anything about being different T_T

Lang analysis was alright I guess...anyone pick up on both hands holding the world as if it was fragile? and the picture, I thought the author was drawing attention to the two human sized figures, and that they were 'in the middle of it' sigh =\ didn't pick up on that much :(

more about the common "world in our hands" thing and then how it ended with a sense of hope by the illumination of the globe.

Are you serious? Because that's about 1600-1700 per piece, assuming you wrote on every line.

I am happy with how i went apart from a rushed conclusion at the end of my context only 1 line, i felt i did just as well as i deserve. I didnt become some amazing word smith but i didnt not choke or anything so i am happy. Although i spend an hour and 10 mins on lang analysis which i wasnt planning on doing.. Anyone else having a bonfire to incinerate your english stuff?

Lnaguage Analysis was sorta weird! :S
