As you can see in the film Shakespeare In Love that William Shakespeare put his heart and sole into his writing. There are different aspects about his life that effect Shakespeare’s writing. His friends and associates played a big part in Shakespeare’s plays. In the movie Shakespeare In Love the owner of the movie house used to tell Shakespeare what the title of his play should be and the type of play that he should write. Shakespeare also got ideas from other writers and friends, in the movie another writer gave him the start of a plot to Romeo and Juliet and another actor gave him the idea for the title.
I think Shakespeare’s biggest inspiration for his writing came from his love of the women that would come into his life. When the movie starts Shakespeare was suffering from writers block, he couldn’t seem to put his thought onto paper he lacked inspiration. Then Shakespeare meets a women and he goes on to write the first scene to his next play that very day. After a short while Shakespeare catches that women having sex with another man and his inspiration is gone and he goes back to having writers block. Then later in the movie Shakespeare winds up meeting the love of his life and he winds up writing a whole play about her and there relationship and he called Romeo and Juliet. Shakespeare wrote plays on what he thought love was, but society didn’t want romance and drama society wanted comedies. The Queen of England said that true love cannot be shown in a play, but her mind was quickly changed after she saw Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet.

A good entry--you started strong but the arguments were a bit less clear towards the end. Why do you think the Queen thought it was hard to show true love in a play?
it's true where shakespeare got his inspirartion from. it seems like most other writters they tend to gather their inspiration from "muses" and of course their environment. it's interesting how his love life turned out to be in his play Romeo and Juliet. nice blog.
I think your entry is quite a strong analysis of the film with very well intergrated thoughts on Shakespeare's actual life. I also think you had a similar as mine where at the end of the entry you focused more on the film than the question at hand.
