I find any extremes of emotion help me write, infact require me to write. But I write differently when in different moods, which can be an advantage sometimes, as I don't necessarily want the thing flooded with one emotion. But isn't good when trying to sustain a consistant mood. As my story is...

Yeah, it's her first post don't scare her away.

I pressume that this is just to get a basic draft completed without cluttering it with fancy writing and description. Not a bad idea in my opinion, but yes very difficult. I don't think you should go through and remove the adjectives though, that seems rather pointless. This would only really...

ScottyG utilises the technique of grammatical "errors" to promote disscussion, aswell as to make him seem more of a down to earth person, and he does this well to express the theme of writing short fiction in his posts. His omission of the apostrophe in "thats" [sic] makes him seem more...

Scotty, I think you should be seriously considering whether you are up to undertaking this level of english. Mistakes of this nature will not be taken lightly in the future. :p *checks post for grammatical mistakes* *finds none* *gets scared* :bomb:

! I didn't know we were allowed to do that! Why didn't anybody Flipdorfin tell me before?

Good idea. 1. The Crowd 2. Todd 3. Both, though not too many concrete characters as yet. 4. A shopping centre 5. Humorous / Action-Adventure / Sociological Explorative [If this really counts a a genre, :P ] 6. Modern Day 7. Not as yet, though some sound intriguing, I'm sure I can slip...

12/15 I'm pretty happy with that, would have preferred 13 but... Not exactly sure of my rank yet, but there were at least 2 of 5 below me, so I'm happy. :)

Just been wondering, How many of you wouldn't do the ext 1 course if it wasn't required for you to do ext 2? I certainly wouldn't.

Can't wait to get mine back. It's the first assignment I've actually written multiple drafts for. Can't wait.

Whenever I write, I write in my journal. But I haven't really been building up one bit though, just writing little snippets. I should start writing on my computer, as It'll get very difficult when I actually want to put any of this stuff together.

ok, an agent for self determination, I'm kinda confused. My teacher always refers to the characters, for example Lizzy from P&P, as agents for self determination, but that doesn't sound right to me. It sounds like they are real estate agents, or spies or something. I would have thought that...

snap I think I'll get stuck in tomorrow :)

Okay, fair point. But you own your own story, and you can choose to do whatever you want with it. Yeah I understand where you're coming from though.

No, I understand what you are saying, but prinicpals have no right to censor what is said about the school. And if they have a problem with anything that is said, so long as it is truthful, then maybe they should be doing something about it rather than just stopping people hearing about it. If...

Just thought I'f point out that the post that you are all replying to, asking for notes, is 2 years old.

Yeah, i was ment to read it aswell - I'm about halfway through now, and it is starting to get a little more compelling, but i can definatly see where you are coming from. There is a BBC mini-series though, which might be helpful. I haven't watched it yet, as I thought it would probably be...

Yeah, I should probably get onto some of the "due next week" work. Is it just me or does stuff get more boring the shorter the time till it is due is?

I understand the purpose behind the rule, and I agree with the idea that it wouldn't nessecarily be helpful, but it couldn't hurt. And some obviously find it helpful: But, whatever. I s'pose that that is what the HSC is all about, putting yourself in the position to have as many advantages...

:D That's the plan
