  1. Hey there, Zack!

    I just got done reading your first story. I must say, I was very curious to see who Zig was. I was not sure if it was a storybook character or your nickname. I just read your introduction, so I found out pretty quickly! The first story in your storybook was great! I was not sure what the story was about because I had not read the source story before! The ending of your story really hit me hard! I was not expecting to read such a gruesome tale! I was almost sure that he would escape from the lion. You did a good job keeping me on my toes! I was definitely surprised by that one! I also thought that your image was really funny! I think it provides a sense of comic relief from the gruesome ending to your story. I wonder what would have happened if Androcles ended up besting the lion instead? That would also be really interesting to read about! I noticed there were a few spelling mistakes, but other than that you did a great job! Keep up the good work!

  2. Hello Zack! The design for your web page is pretty neat and it was very simple to navigate through your page which I appreciate. I read both of your stories and thought they were pretty well written. I was curious as to what was going to happen in the first story with Johnny and was happy to see that he got his honor and fame at the end. I did think that maybe there could have been a little more background about him as well as a little more detail throughout the story. At first I thought the story was actually true so it really engaged me towards it. For the second one I thought it was interesting and enjoyed the plot twist of you making it your own story by adding a more gruesome image to the reader. I really enjoyed reading your stories and hope to come back to read some more!

  3. Hi Zack!
    I must say that both of your stories were short and sweet, but packed a lot of action. In the first story you pretty much followed the same plot sequence as the original story which lead to an even better story when told in your own words. The fact that you changed the occupation and location of the story to football and OU lets me know that you must be an OU football fan with some school spirit. There was a typo in the first story however in the second paragraph where you say "He wound up and three the football". I think you meant to say "He wound up and threw the football". I may be mistaken though. I thoroughly enjoyed your second story as well. You completely changed the ending of this story and it turned out amazing. I'm always for a more plot twisting and gruesome ending instead of the cheesy happy ending.

  4. Hi Zack! Once I saw the title of this portfolio I knew I had to click on it. I like the design of your website and the pictures you used, especially the one with the cat. The story that interested me the most was “The Tale of Johnny Gloke.” I was actually pretty curious as to why you named the character Johnny Gloke until I read the author’s note. I think my favorite part of the story is the fact that Johnny was able to just walk on to OU like it was nothing. It was like OU said we need anyone that can throw a ball and Johnny ended up with the position. I think my main question about this story is why you made it to where the other quarterback breaks his leg. What if you made it to where Johnny throws terrible passes the whole game, but they get tipped and somehow end up in his receivers’ hands. I think this would add a more comical aspect to this story.

  5. Hi Zack! It was great getting to read your project! I was a little thrown off at first because the stories didn't have a lot to with each other and you didn't have much of an introduction but overall I really enjoyed your stories - especially the one about Johnny the football player - I think we'd all read almost anything about OU football right now!!! I really appreciated how detailed your author's notes were because I hadn't read almost any of the stories your project was originally based on - thanks for giving such detailed descriptions so I could keep up! I liked how much you changed up the second story but since that was the only one I had read I was expecting a wayyyy happier (and less terrifying) ending so I was definitely surprised! Great job! I really enjoyed your pictures even though they didn't have a whole lot to do with your stories, they definitely kept things light! Overall I really enjoyed your project! Great job and good luck with finals!!

  6. Hi Zack! First of all, what a cool portfolio — your site design is really clean and modern. On the first story about the devil and the drunk, I really liked your spin on the story and thought the ending was appropriate, but sobering. The only thing I noticed in this story is that there were a few grammatical and spelling errors (like "but he would grand them anyways" instead of "grant"), but overall it was a neat retelling. In the second story, I really liked how you modernized the story and the setting! I did wonder about some parts that lacked a few details — did Johnny have any experience playing with a football team before he decided to go out for OU's team? And on your final story about Androcles and the lion, I thought your version was really creative and was a unique twist on the original with your own "moral of the story." Great job with this portfolio and good luck with finals!

An introduction to me... Zack Ziegenhorn

Hello Everybody! My name is Zack Ziegenhorn, but most everyone I know calls me Zig for short. Its much easier to remember than Zack and MUCH easier to spell than Ziegenhorn.

I came to OU in 2013 because I have been Sooner born and Sooner bred. I have been a huge OU fan my entire life and was so excited to get the opportunity to attend this University.                      Obviously I am a huge sports fan and love football, baseball, basketball, and golf. My favorite teams are OU, the St. Louis Cardinals, and the Oklahoma City Thunder. Thunder up!! I enjoy going to the lake over the summer and getting on the boat and just having a great time with friends and ...

Week 13 story; The Drunk and The Devil

Blog Story! Dillon Dilly is an American, a construction worker, and a drunk. He would only work on his projects long enough to have enough money for booze and once he spent all his money on alcohol, he would return to his work. Dillon was walking back to his home one day after a week long bender when he said to himself, " I would sell my soul to the devil just to get more beer." At that moment a tall, slender, black figure walked up to him and asked "What did you say?" "I said I would sell my soul to the devil for another drink" The figure said "How much do you want for seven years and at the end the devil will take your soul?" Dillon replied " I am not sure. It would depend" "How does $7,000 sound?" "Ill take $7,000!" "And the devil will take your soul at the end of the seven years?" "Yes, I don't care about that." When Dillon got back to his house he found the $7,000 in ...
