What I know is that William Shakspeare was a writer from England that wrote almost 40 plays. His most known plays were Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, King Lear, and Macbeth. Shakespeare's plays didn't become as famous as they are now until the 19th Century.

I know that William Shakespeare wrote many plays, poems, and other forms of literature. His influential writings are still cherished by many today, and known for their complexity and beauty.

Did he really wear those puffy pants though? =^) Only kidding; I really do love Shakespeare's work.

Shakespeare wrote a lot of plays, some of them Macbeth and Othello I think.

But apart from that I know that he was a 1700's guy(I think), but in reality I don't know much about Shakespeare.

I tried posting at school but it didn't work so...

I know that Shakespeare was a compelling writer and wrote many famous plays. Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio- from his famous play Hamlet. He used witty remarks to entertain the people and he was well known for his insults. Many people write whole entire books on just trying to explain what shakespeare was trying to say.
