Post 1: Choose two terms from the Elements of Fiction lecture and apply them to "The Fall of the House of Usher."  You learned in the Authors lecture that Poe is considered to be "the father of the modern-day short story."  Did you find his story engaging?  Why do you think his works remain popular more than 150 years later?  Be sure to quote, cite, and reference from the text(s) using appropriate APA format.  Your post must be at least 250 words.
