Do you recommend any good books/poetry/film etc that explores the theme as love?

I came up all of that on my own, without any reading. Do you think I did a good job of being descriptive and engaging the reader, or research will enhance this?

Ok, It's kind of a cliché romantic story. You know, a guy wants to win a girl over, that sort of stuff.

Well, I've changed my mind. I don't want to write about a haunted house anymore. Instead, I've figured it would be easier to write an love story. His Love Was His Biggest Enemy She sat across the other side of the dining hall gazing at her silver wedding ring and passionately kissing her...

How many should you read though?

What is the minimum amount of books/texts/movies you should take a look at?

How about this? I tried to edit it based on what you said. They all approached the silver-shiny platform to board the Great Marine on a cold, windy day. The Great Marine was a large, famous ship largely known for having explored every region in the world. Rory, Emily, Louis and Liz were...

What I meant by "old" is that they had been friends for a long time in that context. The passengers were looking to relax and go to some place. Old sea captain is just describing his age. I hope it makes you understand those bits.

I'll try to keep note of grammar or spelling errors. What do you think of this as my the beginning of my story? They all approached the golden-silver shiny platter to abroad the new ship on a foggy, windy and snowy day. Rory, Emily, Louis and Liz were all old high school friends ready to...

Yeah, an high speed train. And maybe "As if she suffered a lightening shock?"

So around 12-15? And then you just pick the best one? So you're basically writing 15 drafts, each 8000 words, in the same context and plot line? Btw, what do you think of this paragraph in the middle of my plot; this sentence was shaped from the novel "I Know What You Did Last Wednesday."...

You mean an whole story; like 25 pages+ for an draft? So you just add bits and pieces to your draft as you go through your research and then ask for feedback? And eventually you will copy your exact draft getting rid of the weaknesses and type it up and sent it to the BOS. Btw, fifteen...

By draft of the MW and Reflection statement; you mean an plan?

Including things I decide to delete and my reasons? Would an journal be just like an writing booklet and for each page like "Day 1" - what I did "Day 2" - what I did, and etc?

Is it also allowed to use an movie of an haunted house and put the first scene or so into writing, and then expand on that? I could document this in my journal.

You mean for HSC, or Prelim? Also, how would I link it back? Just mention it in the Reflection statement? Maybe I could use Frankenstein as an concept/idea to explore on and expand?

Cool. I can't wait to start. I'm not entirely sure on what Advanced or Ext 1 topic to link this back to -- any ideas? Crime Fiction?

Do I need to have stuff like personification, imagery, metaphor, simile, etc? Also, I read this book in Yr 8 which one was one of the best novels I have read. I'll briefly explain the plot to you; A group of high school graduation friends met up to go to an house. When they got there, each one...

Yes, but how do I apply it to my story? I'm a bit confused about that; the purpose of the research.

Ok, and to link it back to an Advanced/Extension 1 topic, it could be Crime Fiction?
