Readers as Writers


I don’t belong here in this poor excuse of the city. My husband is a nasty, poor man whom I do not love. The man I love is married, but he loves me, I know he does. He tells me every time we meet that he’s going to leave her for me. That hag doesn’t deserve him like I do anyways. He treats me the way I deserve and showers me in his wealth. Its all I need. –Myrtle, the Great Gatsby.

  1. Great idea to tell Myrtle's side of the story. I could see it being a hit. You might like the book Z: A Story of Zelda Fitzgerald. I loved the fictional but research-based retelling of the Fitzgerald's life story from her perspective.
