    poem titles

    yeah, they all are, it's a strange way in which they're all related, so bear with me. but they are all derived from music and my investigations into song-writing and really influential songwriters, so they're all sort of related in the sense music serves as the muse for all of them. they all...

    How many logbooks are you doing?

    i've seen MW's from past students and some of them wrote thoooousands and some only used maybe one or one and half. as far as i know, all the markers do is look through it to clarify that the work is legitimate, and not some copy, so it might only be a point of reference, and not really...

    Does Feminism annoy anyone else?

    with this being in the extension english thread, it's probably not the place to comment on feminism in general, i'm not fussed over whether feminism is good or not, all that we really need to care about is how we can use it to get good marks, and we dont need to start a sexual revolution for...

    What To Do When Your First Draft Is A Piece Of Shit?

    don't worry about it dude, it'll be right. remember, this subject is like an artform, and if we treat it that way things will be a million times better. writing, whether it be script or short stories or poetry (i'm doing poetry) it's like art, so it's pretty weird and unpredictable. so the worst...

    Opposite of Personification

    yeah, i'd agree with 'slide rule' i'd say there is a correlation of naturalistic elements within maloufs depiction of the child (i havent read the poem yet, but i'm just putting it in a sentence to see if it makes sense :p) maybe it's completely wrong, i dunno...if you want some whacked out term...

    Does Feminism annoy anyone else?

    it's interesting to open your mind different interpretations of any text. Feminism in any elizabethan or jacobean revenge tragedy is interesting as a point of discussion about whether the depictions of women within these texts are sort of indicative of the social values of the period. feminism...

    completed first draft???

    i think poetry is perhaps a means to explain that which is inexplicable, hence it seems as though inspiration can present itself literally anywhere that you can find, but my whole concept is a study of music, hence mine are mostly drawn from there, though it seems the possibilities and muses are...

    completed first draft???

    im not sure i have any sort of drafts or anything, i'm just writing...and writing...and writing, although i have eased off because half-yearlies are coming up. but still, i might have enough for as many as 3 major works, i just have to pick the ones i think are the best and then arrange them...

    warning c.f people

    yeah, we are studying it right now. The 1946 version was edited and added to to accentuate the romance element, hence the detective element of the film is compromised. Although it seems like not much has changed, it really makes the whole film different when you look at the big picture

    Help

    i'm fairly confident the limit is 5000 words for the poems and reflection statement combined. The reflection statement itself can be 1000 words min. and 1500 words max. so i guess that means 3500 to 4000 words of poems. but yeah, poetry is a pretty awesome medium, i find it really enjoyable...
