I have chosen "The Masque of the Red Death" by Edgar Allen Poe. The story is about the plague which is called the "Red Death" and it kills people. Prince Prospero hides from it in his abbey. Once he has a masquerade ball and guests notice a mysterious person. That's the "Red Death". Prince begins to run away but it chases him and he dies. And then all people also die.
I like intriguing stories and it's one of them. I am fond of E.A. Poe's style. It's full of different expressive means and devices. And the author keeps the reader in suspense.

While creating my blog I faced some difficulties. Firstly, I had to fill in a lot of information. Secondly, I had problems with publishing my profile. And, thirdly, I couldn't find the design. But despite my tragic experience, finally I could create my own blog.
I believe that it's a good opporunity for all the students to share their views, pictures, impressions with each other and to be in contact. It helps us to develop our skills in working with computers and to improve our creativeness.
Hope everybody enjoys this task)
