Plan out an original short story. You don’t actually have to write the story, just outline/plan it out. There are a few things that make Ray Bradbury’s “A Sound of Thunder” an enduring classic. The foreshadowing. Bradbury tempts and teases us with glimpses of the future. We almost feel as if we have a time machine and can see a little bit into the future.
The character. We dislike Eckles right away. Though Eckles braves with bravado at first, Bradbury gives small clues and hints into Eckles true nature, and so the reader waits with bated breath for Eckles to mess up.
The descriptions. Everything single time Bradbury describes anything having to do with the dinosaur or time travel, he is detailed and creative. His amazing adjective choice and focus on detail help us experience and see something we know is complete fantasy.
The topic. Time travel has fascinated the human imagination, at the very least, since the end of the 19th century. The possibilities of redemption, getting a do-over, seeing the impossible… and possibly screwing it up - keeps us coming back for more.
Copy and paste the outline below into your own document and fill in the blanks.

Read the following passage: he roamed from chamber to chamber with hurried, unequal, and objectless step. the pallor of his countenance had assumed, if possible, a more ghastly hue— but the luminousness of his eye had utterly gone out. the once occasional huskiness of his tone was heard no more; and a tremulous quaver, as if of extreme terror, habitually characterized his utterance. there were times, indeed, when i thought his unceasingly agitated mind was laboring with some oppressive secret, to divulge which he struggled for the necessary courage. which of the above ideas might be considered foreshadowing? he is wandering all over the chamber his skin tone is really pale his voice is quivering the narrator thinks he is laboring with an oppressive secret
