How bad does your writing have to be for you just to get 0? my writing for the creative was atrocious! some parts not even on the lines

In all seriousness, I think I may have actually deluded myself into thinking that picture actually contained a boy and his father as that was the basis of my creative piece. Or it may just have been because I'm an idiot, haha.
I thought it was father and son...

If we had 2 and a half hours we could proof read and finish everything up and edit out the shit parts...it's so stupid.[/QUOTE]

Totally agree, how is that a good measure of ones intelligence...its a damn sprint, you get know time to represent your ability cause your just going nuts to get as much information down...Board of Studies, you are a hoax!

My English Coordinator said that you didn't have to explicitly make the characters of the creative a grandfather and son, you COUDL'VE, but it wasn't the most important factor. She said you needed to show the relationship of people overtime, obviously reflected through the past time of fishing so don't fret if your characters weren't a grandfather and son, but you had to incorporate that at least somewhere in the poem to enhance your story in relation to the stimulus
