To many English teachers he is a great novelist who helped show the way people were in the 1920's, but to the students he is some dumb writer who made the book to torcher their lives by doing bios, reports, and projects on the thing, and I personally have to agree, if he were alive I would ask, why did u make a book that schools and teachers like? Then again I am only a teenager like almost every high school student, so my opinions on literature and reading are all in a negative.
Anyways, lets get to the point of this blog, I'm here to let yall know wassup with this guy, so imma spend some time doing research on him and give you a bit of info, k? No responce? It's ok I already feel crazy typing to myself thinking that many people will get to this blog and take the time to actually read it, but at least I can say I tried my best to get out there. Since I'm not wikipedia, I will give you some short quick info about him and writing. He was most influenced by the Jazz Age, and the thing he was most remembered for was writing "The Great Gatsby", which eventually made it into the cinemas. I heard that his book wasn't a big hit when it was first put out, but later on, after decades, it was popular because of the many things he showed about the time he lived in. I am not sure on what else he is known for by teachers, but by students he is the guy that made their lives more miserable by writing "The Great Gatsby".
...still reading? Oh you are, amazing, me talking to you seems to draw you in huh? You just want to keep digging and digging into the heart of my opinion, thank you for caring.
BIO!!!
Yeah, I really thought I'd be done too, but i had to go on.
This guy's name isnt really "F" it's short for Francis, full name: Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald. He only lived to be 44, dying on December 21, 1940... from a heart attack (took me a while to find that out). He was an alcoholic, had two heart attacks get at him in the late 1940's and smoked like the rest of the world at the time.
He was:
A Roman Catholic
The name "Scott" came from his dead sister Louise Scott
Completed four books in total: "This Side of Paradise", "The Beautiful and
Damned", "Tender Is the Night", and "The Great Gatsby"
Married Zelda Fitzgerald (not the video game character)
He had a daughter, named Frances, around when The Beautiful and Damned was published.
Didn't like film work, but in desperate need of money, he turned to it.
Had very bad health.
Legacy lives on in "The Great Gatsby"

Well with all this research, that's pretty much all that is important about him, but on the real, I wouldn't ask him anything because it would waste my time for more important people. But thank you for taking your time to actually get to this point, it's really appreciated. F. Scott Fitzgerald will always be remembered, just like Macbeth stuff.

This is much too informal... "imma" and "k"? You need to spend more time on your work. 45/75
