  • Robinson Crusoe

    Daniel Defoe, Michael J. Marshall

    language (Core Knowledge Foundation, Nov. 11, 2013)
    The story of Robinson Crusoe was inspired by a real-life castaway. In 1705, Alexander Selkirk, a Scotsman, argued angrily with the captain of his ship over whether their boat was too leaky to sail. After the boat stopped to get fresh water at an island in the Pacific Ocean, Selkirk refused to go back on board. So the captain left him there alone with a Bible, a gun, a kettle, and a few tools and supplies. Four-and-a-half years later another English ship visiting the island saw a signal fire and found Selkirk still alive. Today, the island is named for him.Selkirk lived off goat meat and what he called “cabbages that grow on trees.” He slept in a hut made of branches and wore goatskin clothes, though for a while he went naked. He was very fit and could catch goats to eat even though he was running barefoot. The sailors who found him said he looked wild. He had mostly forgotten how to speak and at first could say only parts of words.Selkirk came home to England and Daniel Defoe read about him in newspapers. Selkirk’s adventure had Defoe’s favorite story ingredients: danger, escape, and survival – plus an ordinary person for its hero. Many more merchants and workers were learning to read and write around the time Defoe wrote Robinson Crusoe. To appeal to these new readers, Defoe presented his story as if it was told by an ordinary man who had been rescued from a desert island. He also wrote it in a plain, informative style with a lot of realistic details. This made it easier for many readers to feel they understood Crusoe. One reason Robinson Crusoe is still well-liked is that Defoe makes ordinary things seem beautiful and ordinary actions seem noble.Besides travel adventures, books about personal religious experiences were also very popular in Defoe’s day. Robinson Crusoe is also like those. Defoe’s story tells how Crusoe disobeyed his father by running away to sea, how he survived a shipwreck on a wild island, and how he must work and wait alone, hoping for rescue. Defoe’s readers would have seen the similarity to the Biblical story of how Adam and Eve disobeyed God by eating forbidden fruit, how they were thrown out of the Garden of Eden as punishment, and made to work and suffer in hopes that one day they would be forgiven and saved.In our world of television and radio we seldom have to feel all alone or live in silence. This makes Robinson Crusoe’s story thrilling for us. Could you civilize a wilderness like he did, or would it turn you wild, as it did Alexander Selkirk?

  • Real Fast Writing: How to Write Faster, 25 of the Hottest, Easy-to-Implement, Under the Radar Strategies You Can Use NOW to Write More, Write Better and Write with Panache!

    Daniel Hall

    Paperback (Real Fast Publications, Jan. 12, 2017)
    The goal of this book is simple: Help you write faster and at a higher quality. Let’s face it, if you’re in business for yourself--a speaker or trainer, coach or consultant or if you realize the great need for large quantities of fantastic content fast--then you need to know how to speed write. It goes without saying that if you’re a writer or publisher and you can already crank out content at a brisk clip, even a small increase in production can give you a slight edge. Add a percentage point more production with one tactic here and another percentage point with another strategy there, and you do that consistently over time you can significantly increase your overall production. Fact is, this book contains all of the strategies I’ve learned, developed or innovated to do exactly that: write at lightning fast speed. By the way, the techniques I cover can be applied – almost universally – to any type of content you need. You can use these methods to quickly write books, blog posts, emails, letters, scripts, articles, essays, white papers, sales copy, social media posts, fiction or non-fiction.
