Description

First briefly outline your story including a summary of your story's plot and characters. Then list and describe the two ways you use irony in your story (verbal irony and dramatic irony, or irony of situation and dramatic irony, etc). Have this part separate from the rough draft and final draft.


Then write a rough draft of your irony story with a exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution. The short story must include character dialogue (only one or two characters will do). Once the rough draft is written you must revise with highlighted marks to indicate revision.

After the rough draft then continue to write the final draft. Also the final draft must have the two uses of irony highlighted/underlined. There is no particular length for this assignment but must have strong exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution or conclusion with a conflict involved.

All of this may be include in the same document but everything should be separated from each other.

to be away from his boring life, more verbal irony Then he realizes he is just dreaming, but as he
awakens he finds that he really is on an island which is the situational and dramatic irony.

(Rough Draft)

I was running. I didn't know where I was running to or why I was running until I looked over
my shoulder. There I saw the reason. A giant tidal wave was approaching my cabin and I was about to
be swept away in an ocean of fear and despair. I had reservations about this vacation in the first place
and now my fears are being realized. At the last minute, I grabbed a tree limb as the water gushed over
me and it took everything I had to hold on and not be pulled into the violent current. I had taken in a lot
of water and I wasn't sure if I was going to make it, but I just held on and hoped it would end soon. At
first I thought this must be a dream because it all happened so sudden, but the water was too cold to be
make believe. As the final rush of water subsided, I climbed up on the tree limb and...
