I'm so proud that i got a string too! I wrote 1 1/2 booklets for essay, and 1 1/4 booklets for creative. But, my creative is so bad, so it really doesn't matter how much I wrote.Kyroth*** said:I dis tiny compared to everyone else, 8 for creative and 9 for essay. Still, I am so proud of that 9! I was onto 8 when the hour was up (i did essay first) and I thought, bugger it, I want a string, I'll take 5 min off creative! And it was okay, because my story ended, so taking the 5 minutes off didn't make a difference, and I got a string!
My teacher said last year she was marking Gwen Harwood for critical study, and she liked people who did that best, because you pick it up and go "Yep, this person must know a lot" and then "Damn, I'm going to have to read all that..." then the second book only has one page, o it makes them happy, because its shorter!
Thats clutching at strings a little, but still!
Question - Is typing easier?? I was just wondering - my hand starts to reaally ache after about my 20th page, and DAMN I'd love a computer....nwatts said:Does anyone else type? I got something like 3,700 words. A lot less than my trials.
