You see I have this weekly assignment for english which is a journal entry. Every week on monday she gives us a a journal entry topic to write about & it always due on friday, so for this week topic is: If you could visit with a historical figure for a day, who would it be & why? I want to write on a person who is a historical figure but that is a artist or a writer. I can't seem to find any so I'm asking you guys if you guys know a website on historical figures that is a artist. This is a huge part of my grade so if I get a 0 it will affect my average for english & GPA.
