I was really impressed in my authors story because she was really specific on her story and it was very interesting.  It made me understand that I have to keep the authors or readers attention so they could keep reading the story.

The person that read my story gave me a good feedback because she said that she really liked my story.  It made me feel good and happy because it gives me more energy to keep writing more.  Also, She told me that she wants me to continue my story because of how interesting it is.

   A tragic love story of a young man named Anthony and a young woman named Stacy.  It all started when Anthony got invited to a dance party.  At the party a young woman named Stacy was hanging out with her friends.  Anthony saw Stacy and he was heading towards her because he thought that she was the most beautiful girl in the world.  He sat down next to her and started talking to her.  Stacy felt the same as how he did also.  She thought that he was the best person for her.  Stacy later on that night left home and couldn't wait to tell her parents what had happened to her.  When she got there she told her parents everything but, her parents didn't agree with that love that she had for him.  They told her that she can't be with him because he was going to ruin her life.  Stacy just then left running to her room crying because of what her parents told her.  It was the next day when Anthony and Stacy met up and he told her ...

My experience as an independent learner is that it is sometimes hard to work by yourself but, I think that you learn better because you get more practice.
