That could make for a clever parody if written effectively.
That is so awesome.DigitalFortress said:We're not allowed to talk about rape

I'm going to write a story about a girl who gets raped and then suicides, angering her parents...emotional stuff happens at the funeral and the husband leaves the wife for a new love. They then have a 20 minute conversation where the wife discusses poetry. Then the girl wakes up and it was all a dream.
Suck on that english markers.
who says they're going to be over 50??what971 said:I'm going to copy Final Fantasy word for word.
Surely 50+ year old teachers wouldnt have heard of it? right???
of course, you'll have to find some way of letting the marker know that it's a song they're hearing internally and responding to, otherwise it could come across strangely. the trick will be to find some way of doing this subtley and incorporating it tastefully and sophisticately into the storyplayboy2njoy said:I have a structure ready in my head. It involves any journey (which can be adapted in the exam) that includes digetic music concurrently with the story. Eg:
Thats something I just made up, to show what I mean. Its a good idea, as you can pick a song you will remember, and let its words direct the thesis of the story.
Either that or they'll be 17yrd gamer freaks.silvermoon said:who says they're going to be over 50??
I think you can do just as well, perhaps better with a light-hearted approach. In the trials I wrote about a 50m freestyle race in first person, and i did ok, but could have done better if i hadn't of wasted heaps of time on the short answer ones. Its easier if you can write about something from experience coz it makes it more believable and if you lack creativity like me you dont have to use your imagination too much.Born Dancer said:i kind of have a similar question. is it possible to still get good marks writing a very light-hearted approach to journeys?? i want to write about a cat's journey to discover the greatest mystery about humans, but everyone seems to be coming up with these heaps deep storylines i decided to change it.
hahaha, and im so copying youDigitalFortress said:We're not allowed to talk about rape
