Coping Mechanisms

ENGL 344 Final Project
by
Kerri Zuiker

My final project is broken up into two parts. The first part is a short story I wrote for my ENGL 398 class. The second part is a blog, written from the point of view of the main character in the story. As it's set up right now, it reads in reverse chronlogical order, like most blogs do. I thought it would be interesting to present it this way because you get two perspectives on what the character's going through: one in normal chronological order in the form of the story, and one in reverse in the blog. This was also a great way to do a character sketch, because I had to really get inside his head in order to write his blog entries.
I recommend that you read the story first, and then the blog. It'll probably make more sense that way.
