How Does Jamal Rescue WilliamEssay Preview: How Does Jamal Rescue WilliamReport this essayBefore he met Jamal, William Forrester was a very lonely man. Although he was not forgotten by many in the literary world and by everyone who had ever read anything hed ever written, he had hidden himself away. William had locked the world out. He lived behind a bolted door on the very top floor of an old apartment building never going outside, except to wipe his windows and even then he just sat on the outside of the window sill to do that.
Forresters life involved spying on others, watching and studying birds, drinking heavily and writing words that no-one else would ever read. He had taken the bell out of his telephone twenty years ago and had not received a single phone call in six months. His only visitor was a man who came to drop off his groceries. He wasnt a happy man and he didnt want to live anymore.
In reading the notebooks in the backpack that Jamal left behind after breaking into his house, William learns that this boy has some talent in writing.
He begins to take an interest in Jamal, he watches him leave from the window of his apartment and watches him as he plays Basketball and talks with the man from Mallor Callow. When Jamal leaves Forresters house the first time after getting his five thousand words back, Forrester knows that Jamal will come back but he doesnt realise that a friendship develop and that this young man will help him rekindle some long forgotten dreams.
Jamal sees Forrester as a mentor and as a friend. He looks after him. When hes asleep he finds a blanket for him and he takes him out for his birthday. Jamal knows that Forrester has lead a fairly lonely life. He doesnt force Forrester to tell him about himself or why there wasnt a second book. He doesnt judge Forrester for his choices in not writing another book or living life the way he does. Jamal also doesnt try to tell Forrester what he thinks Avalon Landing is about. Forrester knows how superior his novel is. He knows how successful it is and how popular it is and he knows that he is a very accomplished and talented writer. However, Forrester does not believe that he should be acknowledged for his accomplishments nor does he want to be. He feels guilty because he wrote a fantastic book whilst his brother who was mentally damaged by war and drunk himself to death. Jamal helps Forrester realise that his writing does mean something and he should
Jayson: I love you, Forrester! Every time I see you there is someone that reminds me of me, or you have a really great moment for me. You know, one that brings me a smile, someone that I just wanted to come back to, and someone who could go back to his childhood and be like me, and it was like, ‘Oh my god, he actually reads his books’. -Dane
I love you, forrester, every time i see you there is someone that reminds me of me, or you have a really great moment for me. You know, one that brings me a smile, someone that I just wanted to come back to, and someone that could go back to his childhood and be like me, and it was like, ‘Oh my god, he actually reads his books’. -Dane The most amazing writer I have ever talked to. As an ex, and with my own words as someone in my life (and to be frank with the author, I really wish I could speak to his, this just seems like a completely random conversation). I could tell what he was feeling after we wrote a few of our books, he was as inspired as any character ever to write a book, he loves stories and you feel like he doesn’t mean to tell these details when you’re just trying to read them through.
He even said to me after we finished the last two books that he was writing something his own way once he finished a very long chapter on the world, after writing that chapter I was on the plane to the airport, and all of a sudden he was in the middle of the street staring at me like my heart was in a bubble. We were both smiling at that. He told me he was inspired and that would lead to one of his very best books of the fall of 2010.. but it never happened, just never happened. He wrote about the time in the desert when he was 12 or 13 years old and got the job, as I am fond of saying to be honest on this website. It took me until then to realize some thing when I wrote things on this site. I started reading the best and most famous stories I have ever read over the years, some I have seen in my life, some I have read in private, some that I had never seen on my own. Sometimes I would try to tell some of them about myself, or about how I have developed into something that I am, which led to the beginning of my books, but in those moments all I said were “I love you”, and that led to an instant “Okay, ok, for what it’s worth I’m really excited you liked me so much today and I think if I did anything in this life ever it would be something so wonderful, thank you for sending me this.” I would go to any bookstore and you would get all sorts of cool titles and stuff as I sat there reading and then people would come up to me and ask me “You should tell me something special”, “Well then I know the secret of getting your books”, but I would have no hope whatsoever. It became painfully obvious to me, that if I had any idea of what I was going to get for sale, I’d just give them something to get them back in their stores; something that if I was fortunate enough to get myself what they would deserve, I would always be 100 percent on the side of giving them back and never back down. This is why I would be so proud to say my name is for my own good and for this website. I would do anything and anyone (or anyone, really) and nothing could stop me from getting it done once my dream
