Done In 1st Person.

My name is William Shakespeare. I was born on April 23rd 1564, in the town of Stratford upon Avon, Warwickshire, England on a lovely spring morning. I am still residing in Stratford upon Avon, Warwickshire, England and working with my fellow theatre company. We have successfully made a theatre called the Globe, where we perform our plays. I live with my wife Anne Hathaway. I married her when she was 26 and I was 18. We have three children whose names are Susanna (oldest) and Hamnet and Judith who are fraternal twins. Sadly my only son Hamnet died at the age of 11, the cause of his death is unknown. My daughter Susanna married a physician, John Hall, and had a daughter (my grandchild) Elizabeth. While my other daughter Judith who married a vintner, Thomas Quiney. Up to now I have written a total of 37 plays and 154 sonnets.

I attended King’s New School, which was about a quarter of a mile away from my home, early in my youth years. At the time we did not receive any awards. But if I had to choose one that I would most likely get it would be the, “Golden Pencil” award which would stand for the student who had the best writing out of the whole school. I finished my education at the age of 17 when I no longer wished to continue. Back then I planned to focus more on my writing skills than other skills that were not necessary like swords fighting.

Life to me is filled the craft of theatre, my friends, and my family. I am quite happy with who I am and where I am in life. I rarely feel depressed or sad, most of the time I express my feelings through my writing. I have many friends, most of which I have met through theatre and others from parties that my wife Anne hosts. I spend my day mostly working on my writings and at the Globe theatre organizing plays. I also spend a lot of my time with my theatre company, we are known as the Kings Men. We perform a numerous amount of plays at our theatre the Globe. I am happy with my wife Anne. She is a marvelous wife and supports all my decisions. I could not ask for a better wife. I am more than certain that our bond will last forever.

In around 10 years the year will be 1625. I see myself still writing plays but long retired from acting them. I will be living in a luxurious house along with my wife Anne. Our house will be two stories tall with plenty of rooms. I expect both of my daughters to have more children, which I will raise in my house. Anne and I will have been together for 43 years. She will have signs of aging, weary eyes, grey hair, and weak limps. But I will still love her with all my heart.

As you recall, I was born here in Stratford upon Avon, Warwickshire, England where I have spent most of my life. I would like to visit other countries and see how their writing style and theatre differs or relates to ours, but unfortunately it is far too dangerous to roam around. I am most grateful that you took your time to read my life story. Remember, writing are not just words, look beyond them to find true life meaning.
