After enduring much misfortune in her family, Ophelia takes a stroll down to the brook. Little would she expect the plans fate had for her there. This was originally an assignment for English class when I was in my senior year of high school. The requirement was to write a scene for Ophelia's death in Hamlet using context clues from Scene 7 with a minimum of 300 words.

In the original play, Hamlet had the opportunity to kill Claudius in the Church while he prayed, but hesitated at the last moment. This is what would happen if he binge ate one million PB&J sandwiches before doing the deed.

In the play, Richard basically explains his decisions as coming from being unable to "prove a lover." I'm exploring what might happen if he did have a real love relationship. Owes a great deal to The Hollow Crown.

Before his death and battle, he gave his final moment of loving his Katherine the Black Rose. He gave his speech and reunite in heaven.

Hamlet comes to check if his mother has taken his advice and banished the king from her chambers. Based on the 1991 film version of "Hamlet". One-Shot.

Horatius Amlethum amat. Mille basia ori dulci Amlethi dat. (Fabula lasciva latine)./Horatio loves Hamlet. He gives Hamlet's sweet mouth a thousand kisses. Each chapter is written in Latin, with an English translation provided below. Please read and review!

2nd October 1452: A ten year old Edward, Earl of March, the future Edward IV, awaits with his father the birth of his new sibling. While awaiting the birth, Ned learns an anxious side to his father, the Duke of York, and ponders what it means to be the heir of a noble house and a good brother in a violent world. Can be seen as Shakespearean and non-Shakespearean.

After Act Five, scene three, Troilus drops Cressida's glove.

A one-off I wrote from Claudius's perspective. I always thought Hamlet was a little twit and that his uncle was the cooler character.

In which I finish the story begun by Mamillius in Shakespeare's "The Winter's Tale".

Hamlet wrote Ophelia a brief poem, each line relating to an aspect of their relationship and lives - but little to either of them know where it will lead.
