Yah, I am pleased you finally got access too!

Thanks for a very percise and interesting review of the readings. I am constantly amazed at how much I learn about new students from this assignment, and how much I learn about different styles of writing.

I like the idea of having the two detailed plot/chapter lists - must read up a bit more about that one! I think your idea of thinking of what car a character might drive is interesting too. For me, it is not so much what car they might drive, as how they might dress or even what job they might do. It is all about creating a rounded image of a character to help the reader understand them better.

Okay, now to move onto assignment two. You get to see a story from the other side - to edit a story as you would if you were editing it for someone else. The best way of presenting the assignment is to highlight any changes in a different colour and then tell me why you would make that change.

Have fun with this assignment, don't be afraid of upsetting either myself or H Dean and really focus on ways of improving the chapter. BTW if you have not already found them, the chapters are in the sticky at the top of the level. PM me if you have any problems or questions.
