    latin - how do you study?

    I find it's too much memorising to know the latin off by heart... I learnt the story line and use the latin to help in translation. I used to memorise it all, for year 10 and what not, when the content in the exams was more managable... now i just hope *laughs* One thing: Know your vocab...

    comic books?

    I liked Gaiman's Sandman- it was cool... Well, i actually loved and ended up buying the childrens book... it's basically all seven of them in chibi form, kinda. Centered around Delirium. So very cute. I did, however, like 1602 better. It's basically Gaman's interpretation of a few Marvel...

    What's the most popular genre people are writing in?

    Well, fantasy with the 'gay' subtext... *thinks* Lynn Flewellings "Nightrunner" series, for a start. Gorgeous, stock standard fantasy. Love them :) Um... I believe Mercedes Lackey is another author who dabbled with the idea. I'm not sure of the title, though. Google it ;) Oh. Not a published...

    School?

    Schools can refuse to let a student sit the HSC at their school... if a student between now and the HSC simply didn't show up, then i guess they could be expelled, if the school wanted to. But that wouldn't stop someone from just sitting it at another school. I'd check to amke sure the 200 hrs...

    Everything Science Fiction

    I tend to stick with my fantasy, but a mention of altered Carbon was too much to resist... I love that book. And i have to add, like fantasy, sci-fi is good in that it both enables people to look at aspects of their own society, and it hypothesises on the possible ramifications of that society...
