"no three clouds..."


and then it continues.....and continues... with entirely too much of the passive voice. I'm too scared to edit- I will lose half my story!!!!

"He who is" (That's a quote)

Then the first three actual words from the mouth of yours truly are "They changed the"

I know, how utterly uninspiring do they sound? But with the rest of their sentences they have a little more impact! Haha.

Ive written several stories:
Epigraph: 'It has become...' from a quote

'One small step'

'A withered body'

'Why is our' (how exciting)

'Damn! I turn' (still deciding what strength of swear word to use there.

I've yet to really decide, but at the moment.

Quote: "Men, who are..."
Story: But a pale...

I'm still in the brainstorming phase. I am hopeless.

"It was a"

And I'm sure you're all thinking "dark and stormy night" follows this, but sadly no, I'm not talented enough to pull that off.

G'days. Just thought i'd give youse all a treat and post the first paragraph of me major work.


"Get farkin' Daryll outta the ferris wheel! The nipper's been there a bloody hour!"
Geraldine was not a happy-chappy. Not for the first time her young son, Rathenial had racked off to the ferris wheel at the easter show, when he was supposed to be choosing his showbags. He loved his showbags, and they were the highlite of his year. But they were all out of Snicker's show bags, and Mum wanted to get one for Hubby (that's me Dad). She's Geraldine. But they were all gone, and she was gonna crack this guy. She was gonna do it, I had a tingling.

(y)?

I think mine is the most uninteresting so far:
"It is a"
lol but the rest of the quote is a parody of Jane Austen's "it is a truth universally acknowledged that a man in possession of a fortune must be in want of a wife".

I changed my first 3 words. They now read: "My name is" (Ben Goodwin, and I am an alcoholic.)

Wow, that's even worse than the first time round.

I have done the same thing in my major work, although it wasn't the opening line.
Thinking it's not so original now eh.

Ha, I went to an open day at Wollongong uni and the journalism lecturer said that a survey somebody did somewhere at some point in recent history showed that the only people trusted less than journalists (in terms of profession) were hard drug dealers.
It is not necessarily Journalists who misconstrew facts. Most of the time you need to look beyond the information that ascends from the horse's mouth. Without Journalists there would be no global or for that matter, local communications. As much as you love to hate Journalists, where would you be without them?

lmfao you idiot, it's a quote from Hunter S. Thompson, one of the greatest journalists of the 20th century.

perhaps you should take a large dose of your own medicine, followed by a nice warm cup of stfu.
An Extension 2 student who resorts to unintellectual msn jargon and vulgarity to clarify his point.

How Impressive.
