I am writing a short story and I want to kill my main character at the end. The death can be ironic, but it is not meant to be comic. What would you consider to be the most surprising, or original way to kill off a character?

1) Hucks casual, conversational style lightens up otherwise serious events
2) Twain wants the reader to see events through Hucks eyes
3) The story wouldn't keep the readers interest if it were told from third person point of view


Which do you think is best and why. Give three examples if you can!

I love flowers, grow many and sell for .10 each. It is amazing, I have been doing this for 12 years, on a card table out front, with money jar. So so so many people over the years of all ages and shapes and sizes love flowers. I'm not sure (except for allergies) I've found anyone who doesn't love flowers, I mean any age group, race, gender etc. I once read "flowers touch the soul" What have you heard or read or experienced. They are like magic in some way. If you do like them ,what do they do for you ? My best compliment came one year I was out front weeding and a 15 year old skate border, very "teen" looking said as he went by and even without looking at me "Nice flowers you've got here" Teens often avoid over 40's and dirty ol' flower ladies but they touched him. I have many apartment dwellers near me who have had to give up their gardens and love to just walk by & enjoy. It blesses them somehow. I tell them, don't thank me, thank God, He created them, I just nurture them

I would love to take my boys to a J.K. Rowling book signing when the new Harry Potter book comes out in July. Do you know where I can sign up to be notified when she will be touring? FYI - I have checked her official webpage and there is nothing posted there as of today's date. I also know that Scholatic is the publisher of the latest book and have checked their website and found nothing.

My assignment is to compare the rise and fall of the totalitarian regimes in Germany, Italy, Japan, and the Soviet Union.

I was wondering if someone could provide a site where I can get the information?

I need a surname that is obviously English, but not so ridiculous sounding that it can't be used as someone's name. I'm writing a story set in the late 1800's in England, and the character in question is a jewler.

Because I’ve been very careful in choosing through life, I even talk to a lot of people before making any step, but every time I end in a deeper ****, although the choice I made was good but things mess around after me choosing that way, can anybody give me an answer. Is it my destiny, is it luck!
