Some books have the words 'First Edition' printed in them. However, other books do not have the words 'first edition' printed in them and also do not list a copywrite date. For example, on Ebay, there are several Black Beauty books for sale which the sellers all say they think are first editions. However, the books all look different so they can't all be first editions. Please help.

if you had to rewrite a certain quest of Odysseus in the odyssey like when he fights the cyclops, so a kindergarten could understand the quest, how would you write it? in other words, make the quest when odysseus meets the cyclops into other words in which a children can understand what is going on....

He says he's read a chapter or two out of different books, but never an entire book. Book reports when he was in school were done by him reading the blurb at the back of the book. I have always loved reading, and so there are a variety of books at home readily available. How could this have happened?

I am currently writing a novel based on an aquaintince of mine. I found her story of adoption particulary fascinating, and my book is very largely based (although I have created my own scenes and changed detalis) on that part of her life. Her character too is largely based on herslef. Is this allowed? It certainly isn't a biography, as a good portion is purely based on my own imagination; but the story as whole largely resembles 'her' story or what i see her story as being.

Deception



Feeling like a actor In a play not yet written,
Like my whole depends on lies unforgiven.
Yet I've wandered down a road a lot less traveled,
I still ended up with a life that is now unraveled.

You came out of nowhere and struck me with love,
an angel of mercy sent to me from somewhere up above.
Ghastly vision of delight she cast from her eyes,
A seductress of love,she left me dazed and hypnotized.

I reach out to touch her,but as I did she disappears,
This silhouette of beauty playing upon all my fears.
A ghostly Image of temptation,a delusion of my mind,
Where did she go to,why did she leave me left behind.

She said that she loved me,that her love would never falter,
This Immortal Goddess left my broken heart,standing at her alter.
I tried to regroup,and act like my soul wasn't tainted blue,
The more I began to realize that this story is all true.

She came to me at night,clouding all of my life long dreams,
I started hearing the song of sirens,a warriors requiem,
The hymn of the dead rings so load through out my head,
I start to wonder to myself am I alive or am I dead.

This unforgotten nightmare is now clear inside my mind,
Yet I'm so scared of the truth,of what I just might find.
That you never really loved me,you feed me a pack of lies,
That our love was a farce,along with the tears that you cried.

I now know the truth of your existence,of where you came from,
How did I not see this deception,I must have been so dumb.
An angel sent from heaven for my hearts desires to keep.
Now I see your true face,a demon sent from the deep.

I now know the truth from the hell in which you came,
I know of your true Intentions,I know your real name.
Satin has sent you here to take away all of my will,
and for all that you cost me,I've add up the bill.


You can no longer do hurt me,of this I thus do swear,
I repent all the things you said,don't tell me that you care.
Don't sit there and lie to me,I'm not buying into it no more,
I will not take your apologies,You left me broken on the floor.

Go back to where you came from,and leave just me alone,
I'd rather sit in solitude then continue feeling cold.
I loved you so much,I cant believe how hard I fell,
But now I take all this hatred and I send you back to hell.

When I leave my house, and I start to rome,
I'll be looking for my true home.
So I'll start down that path, full of shame,
And I'll wonder if anything will ever be the same.
And not long after when the jouney will start,
There will come a time when the roads will part.
One side will lead to happiness, the other to sin.
And I'll be dreading the answer on which one would pull me in.
So I'll stay where I stand, surround by night,
When from afar will come a great light.
And I'll follow the light for the light shows the way,
And the light will bring joy to my every day.
And the light will lead me to my true home,
And I will be happy, no more will I rome.

I have an idea for a story.



This unpopular girl named Beth, Really hates this cheerleader and they really look alike. So Beth Kills (Or kidnaps) the Cheerleader and fills in for the cheerleader even at her house (Becuase the cheerleaders parents dont even pay attention to her) Then Beth Dicovers that the cheerleader was really miserable and admits everything. She gets put in jail...The end sounds boring at the moment but it won't be!
