After studying the novel Shakespeare: The World as Stage by Bill Bryson, I've come to the conclusion that Shakespeare was the real author of his work. Throughout this whole novel Bryson provides a lot of evidence to support the opinion that Shakespeare wrote his plays himself. I agree with Bryson because most of the information in Shakespeare's plays line up with Shakespeare himself, and because all of the theories that have been developed about Shakespeare's work have major flaws in them.…

His main goal now was to write a new one, which had the same context as the old. The…

‘Let’s go back in,’ Constable Lumina said. ‘Sure.’ Sarah butted out her cigarette and picked up her bag. Constable Peters came back, followed by Sarah and Constable Lumina. The two women were carrying half empty mugs. They smelt of nicotine and mint. Constable Peters set up the recorder and turned it on. ‘So,’ he said, ‘tell me what you and Ashleigh did once you left the house.’ His voice was softer now, it reminded Jo of Grandpa Tom, of sitting on the back veranda with him when she was little…

It’s common practice for movie studios to greenlight sequels, even sequels to movies that few people particularly ask for. This is that grey area in Hollywood where box office success supersedes creativity - and as it pertains to Neighbors, which currently stands as Seth Rogen’s highest grossing film to date (live-action role, at least), it makes perfect sense for there to be a sequel. Right? The 2014 summer box office hit grossed $240 million against a miniscule $18 million production budget…
