Yay! I completed the ritual of walking into school, handing my teacher a bunch of flowers for being glued to her email inbox and mobile phone for the last few days handling my stress, picked out a bleak blue colour for my cover and I'm DONE!!

Notes from the marking center state "The word limit should be achieved and adhered to". Thus, the absolute minium words is 6,000. Otherwise it's going to reflect badly on you. You have a 2,000 word bracket, you have to be in it somewhere.

Thanks everyone, and Tal especially for all the feedback. The stuff you talked about with it being actionless were picked up by my teachers and I as well, so I'm working on incorporating the story back into an earlier draft and fixing up that middle section. Gonna end up with some of the fantasy...

Wow, goodluck getting it done! I'm still in my trials too, so theres extra stress unfortunately, but I am confident I will get it done.

Actually, it's about 4,800 so getting close. ^^

Heya guys. Okay, so, I wrote my major work originally as a sort of speculative fiction in the vein of Alice in Wonderland, with sections from the real world and sections in a fantasy world. It dealt with death, but particularly grieving. People didn't respond very well to the work as it stood...

I can't understand why Speculative Fiction is so unpopular? We're doing Dune, The Handmaid's Tale and Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, and it is AWESOME.
