Influential Writing Effects on My Life

When I was in Elementary School I read the book series labeled A Series of Unfortunate Events. After finishing this series my life was changed forever. These books opened my eyes to the world and all of it's dark horror. This series was not like your classic childhood stories. It was about a demented man trying to kill three children who had be orphaned at a early age and all of their trivial trials throughout their life. I amazed me as a young child that anyone would want to hurt kids of all people. The pessimistic outlook portrayed throughout the series widen my view to see that not everyone had my best intentions in mind. Furthermore, it turned my gaze of the jolly world into a more cautioned and defensive outlook that followed me into the rest of my life.
