Hi guys

I posted these for renarbrab as I had to convert the Word doc into PDF and then TIFF and then Jpeg files, so that the tables are preserved. But it means they're imnages and ya can't selected them as text.

But click on them and they come up all nice and readable. Cool stuff!!

Hi, Renabrab,

You are almost there to hand both of your fanfiction and essay to Paul. You've displayed a half story with amazing 'conversations' and plot. Moreover, you have given an analysis on your own work. You're striking. I only have a story idea what I'm going to do now. I think the conversations in your story are great. I might do similar structure in my story. A lot of conversations plus some actions.

I have no other opinion towards your story. What I want to say is your language skill is great and I envy it.

Thanks very much Min Zhang for your kind words. I found following Vogler's structure and McCarthy's notes very helpful in coming up with my story, and do recommend that as a good way of plotting a story. The University of Akl Continuing Education creative writing course I did stressed the importance of dialogue in short stories, so that's why I tried to incorporate it. Thanks again, and good luck for yours.

Hi Renabrab!!

I think your story has been developed until now is great and it seems to be almost the end of your story. Although I already knew your skill which I really envy, the way of your development of the story seems to be a useful idea that I should keep in mind as you cimmented on my fanfic.

To be honest, I was thinking of the very similar story with yours before I made decision the Princess Mononoke as a my fanfiction story line. On second thoughts, I think it was a good decision for myself because it would have been compared with yours. I mean your work is really great. Like Min Jhang, I also have no opinion or comment about yours. You have done really good job so far!!

Thanks very much Hannah. I value your thoughts. I'm going to wait for Paul's feedback as I think there are one or two things I will alter once I get that. Again, thanks for your nice words.
