Warrior Cats Essays

Oh, wow. That took a while. Next time I write a full essay , I’ll need to make sure I’m almost a whole week ahead. Maybe more, depending on the texts. If you appreciate the fact that I stayed up to finish this, please let me know in the comments. Anyway. One of the texts was one I wanted to use in Year 12 for my belonging essay assessment, but as it was part of a series, the teacher was worried I wouldn’t be able to separate it from the other books. Hollyleaf’s Story has a lot of information from the rest of the series in flashbacks, but I’m not looking at more than what is mentioned in those flashbacks and in the present. So, below is my first draft of my thesis essay on belonging . Having a sense of belonging is important for many reasons, including mental health and self-image. There are many things that can impact one’s sense of belonging, however. If a person cannot find a sense of belonging in their day-to-day or current environment, they may seek it elsewhere. They will ...

  Okay, so I’d written part of this essay before my break. I finished it last week.   Unfortunately, I was a little ill on Sunday and Monday. I’m getting this blog up this week, and hopefully can start on next week’s post too.   I’ve got a slightly longer essay planned for next week. It’ll be a full one rather than a summary essay . I will definitely need to put in some solid time to get it ready on time. Anyway, I’m glad to finally have this essay finished. And hooray! We’re onto Code of the Clans for our short stories now. I hope you are enjoying these again, and if you are, please leave a comment. It really motivates me. The main theme of the short story The Dawn of The Clans is chaos. The chaos in the story is created by a lack of borders, which is fine for a few cats, but remains the case when cats keep coming into the woodland, as it’s ‘good territory for the cats.’ pg 1. Scarcity of prey means chaos leads to large battles. One battle seems to include all ...

This is the last short story in the Warriors Field Guide: Secrets of the Clans. I immensely enjoy the legends of the great cats. They are some of my favourite short stories out of this guidebook. This particular short story is also one of the longer ones in the Warrior Cat guidebooks.  So, to satisfy our curiosity, let's dive into the final story from the original Warriors guidebook and see what depth it contains. I am delighted to be able to share this with you. The central theme in How LeopardClan Won The River is deceit. Some people use deceit to trick others into doing things they would otherwise not attempt. The fallout of the deceived actions can be a source of guilt, causing the deceiver to give up more than if they had been truthful. In the short story, the leaders of LionClan and TigerClan deceive by not mentioning Rage's mate, Fury, when telling Fleetfoot about the boar. Fleetfoot may not have tried to attack the boar if she had known. Because of their guilt, the le...

  Hey. I’m back.   I did put an update on my Patreon about why I haven’t been posting for so long, and there’ll be more information in my July Newsletter . The short answer is, due to health issues (and an error in a hospital’s system increasing wait times), I have been off my ADHD medication. That caused issues whenever I was doing activities alone, like writing and typing.   I seem to be well now, so my doctor and I will be seeing how things go. Posting might be a little up and down, but I’ll try to stay on track. This means I’m aiming for at least weekly updates to this blog again too! Australia has Medicare, so operations and doctor visits are affordable. But if you check out my Patreon in the sidebar, it would be much appreciated. The lowest tier is only $2, and gets you early access to blog posts among other things. Anyway, without any further ado, here’s the summary essay for the final short story from Secrets of the Clans , How TigerClan Got Their Stripes . ...

You've probably heard that a thesaurus is your greatest tool as a writer. It can stop you from using the same words too often. It can enhance the impact of your text be refining your meaning. It can also help you change the way your different characters speak from each other. You should, however, be careful with the synonyms you choose. If you choose the wrong one, you can completely change the meaning behind a line or paragraph. A good rule of thumb is to keep a dictionary handy along with your thesaurus to double-check any words you don't commonly use. Below I've started to rewrite the first book in the Warrior Cats series, Into The Wild, replacing every word with synonyms that exist in the Apple Dictionary. This can easily show the ridiculousness of going overboard with your thesaurus, especially when you aren't being mindful of the synonyms you choose (It's also fun to do!). Fighters The Predictions Start Into The Uknown Introduction Fifty per cent of a satellit...
