The Video<br />
by Haneen Shallo<br />
My character’s name is Claire.<br />
She writes all her stories in<br />
her bedroom with a computer.<br />
Claire is an online writer; she<br />
writes historical facts about life<br />
and she loves to read. She publishes<br />
one story almost every<br />
day because she is motivated.<br />
One day Claire made a video<br />
about her inspiration, Emma De<br />
Williams. She wanted Emma to<br />
see her passion. She was very<br />
dedicated to her work.<br />
A few weeks later, Emma De<br />
Williams found Claire’s video<br />
on the internet.<br />
She giggled and laughed, “Oh<br />
boy, I wonder why I inspired<br />
her? Her stories are absolutely<br />
atrocious!”<br />
Then, Emma De Williams<br />
commented, “You better<br />
work harder, Claire. I’m super<br />
disappointed.”<br />
Emma wrote the comment<br />
as a joke, but then Claire took<br />
it seriously.<br />
“What did I do wrong? I always<br />
worked hard! And my favourite<br />
inspiration isn’t inspiring me,<br />
but being rude!” Claire sobbed.<br />
She had worked hard for seven<br />
years on her writing and Emma<br />
still thought it was a joke.<br />
