May 26, 200719 yr G'day Folks. Just thought i'd post a story that i've just finished writing for a year 10 english assessment on friday. It was in our exam block, the last exam on friday. We had to basically sit down and write a short story for an hour that was rooted in the topic that we've been studying this term, which is 'Australian Tapestry', which is basically Australian literature about Australian issues. We also have to write a connected story in about two weeks, one that we can just hand in this time, but is has to have some connection to the original, they will be marked side by side. I haven't got the faintest idea as to what this new one will be about, it could be a sequel, prequel, use one of the same characters in a completely different situation, the same problems with different characters etc, it just has to have a link, so any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Oh and i need a good title, so suggestions for that too plz, it wasn't required in the exam. I'll let you read it now :P EDIT: Are swear words allowed in this context? Because they are part of the story... -------------------- Having the nickname of ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¹ÃâBruiserÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢ gives anyone a pretty good idea of what type of person you are. If you havenÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t guessed yet, the owner of the nickname, Jimmy Bruce, is a tough kid. Passionate about sport and his mates, in later years he will slot nicely into the blue collar, country born and bred stereotype. The type of guy that not even a broken nose could deter him from a game of footy, especially from a semi final. The sweet, sickly taste of blood crept into his mouth as he jogged after his opponent. He was a mess, sweaty, blood over half of his face, but that didnÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t deter him in the slightest. It instilled a certain fear into his opponents, a massive 6ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢2ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâà "A disbelief in magic can force some poor souls into believing in authority and business"
