This extra credit challenges your creativity. I want you to create a myth or a story involving a werewolf. I'm letting you go wild with this one. It can be as long as you want it to, and anything can happen in it as long as you include a werewolf. For example, you can include something like the werewolf being the hero of the story, but when everyone finds out that he/she is actually a werewolf, they shut him/her out. Just an example! :) Remember, this goes in the SAME e-mail as your assignment if you choose to do this! |
