    WHERE did you lose your virginity?

    In your Dad's office, that doesn't sound cool! Having sex in any bedroom that my dad inhabits would totally gross me out!

    Crime Fiction

    Did anyone else not do a story for the imaginative writing section. it gave a choice of whether to write in the genre or about the genre. I did an interview about the representations of women in crime fiction. The picture had a women in it so yeah.....

    that is a good point.

    Creative - can we write the beginning of a story?

    yeah, but it is interesting seeing the different interpretations of cf. The main thing is that we can back them up with evidence, although unfortunatley that is difficult in the creative writting section where the evidence is our own creative writting lol

    Yeah it's business. unfortunately every time i see any sort of text I analyse it example not techniques and for what purpose the text was created extra extra.... it drives me insane but has become a bit of a habit lol

    Creative - can we write the beginning of a story?

    I agree that their should be some obvious conventions, that being said however I also believe that the top marks will go to those who compose a text which subverts the conventions or plays with them adding something to the genre rather than writting another 'typical' crime fiction story.

    Creative - can we write the beginning of a story?

    ahhh but you see you are wrong again, they are subverting the convention of mystery in order to create humour in order to parody. Is Pulp fiction even crime fiction?

    Creative - can we write the beginning of a story?

    ok again not meaning to be rude but mystery is definetley a a convention of cf. Have you ever read a cf text that does not involve some sort of mystery? Well I haven't. All crime fiction texts have some sort of mystery, and they usually have a crime (hence the genre being called crime fiction)...

    I don't do ind and soc. but with the scaling I think it depends on the candidature as a whole and how well they went across all their subjects. also i heard, but I could be very wrong, that it also depends how u went in adv english, but that could just be a load of bull. I wouldn't worry to...

    Creative - can we write the beginning of a story?

    Not meaning to be rude but if you have been studying cf for a year then you prob should already know it's conventions. conventions include; -Mystery and it's solution through the accretion of evidence -Denuoement (hope i spelt that right lol) -Clues and red herrings - And of course a...

    Which related texts?

    well rabits seem to be a recurring relationship between your cf stories, maybe you should start up another cf sub genre that involves rabbits...... *sighs* the things that amuse my bored mind.

    Which related texts?

    Well I've never heard of that one. As long as a cf text as some conventions you can use it. you can either say well this text fits perfectly within the genre because of blah, blah, blah; or say well this is a crime fiction text but it subverts the conventions fo the genre because of blah, blah...

    Which related texts?

    I'm doing Chinatown and The No.1 Ladies Detective Agency. As long as the texts are cf, it shouldn't matter whether they're childish. In fact they are prob really good to use because you can talk about how cf has been adapted to children, an example of how it's continual adaptation overtime has...

    Creative - can we write the beginning of a story?

    I only do cf but yes it is fine to use a part of the story as long as it makes sense. With any piece of creative writing the examiners won't to be able to see that you have some knowledge of the genre, so as long as you include some conventions and issues of the genre then I'm sure u will be...
