You manage to sidestep all six shots from Six Shooter Sam and bust out of the saloon doors. Johnny pauses to reload his gun, and you make a break for it across the dusty road.

The Carolina Panther’s star quarterback Cam Newton is called a “gunslinger.” The meeting between Patriots (Tom Brady) and Broncos (Peyton Manning) was a “showdown” or predicated to be a “shoot-out” (it wasn’t) between the two great athletes.

January 28, 2016

The digital storytelling reading I chose to respond to this week, “How Do You Tell A Stellar Story?” or “Hiking Towards the Future of Outdoor Storytelling” by Katie Boué was an intriguingly fundamental article from the Outdoor Industry Association. Since outdoor companies—seemingly moreso than some other industries—rely on appearing personal and human, their need to […]

January 28, 2016

I applied Kurt Vonnegut’s method to “The Bride Comes to Yellow Sky” by Stephen Cane. Vonnegut states that a story always has three main parts: a beginning, a conflict, and a resolution. If you think about it, this is primarily true for most stories. I applied his method to Cane’s story because the story starts off […]

As an admirer of language, I have always been very appreciative of the different languages spoken around the world. While reading, “The Bride Comes to Yellow Sky” by Stephen Crane and “Ice Man” by Elmore Leonard, I especially noticed the different vocabulary found in both stories versus modern-day language. For example, if you look at Crane’s story, […]

So I’ve been reading a few of the suggested Old West Legends, Wisdom, insults and slang and I realized there is a lot more to Westerns than people think.
