It looked all empty in here and shtuffs. This is my GCSE coursework, which I had to copy all of out into painstakingly neat handwriting... Although, to explain the crappy title, originally it was written as my first college homework, since the English teacher wanted to assess our writing levels, so told us to write a story based on a day of our lives called "bad day turns good". I got bored of that though, and needless to say, mildly disturbed my new teacher.
Linkity.

It's very well done. It reminds me a bit of an assignment my son had where he had to write a sequel to a happy ending type story, and he turned it into a suicide story.

Thanks =>.<= I love writing stories, trouble is I'm an all-or-or-nothing type person and can't write a story over a period of time.. I have to forefit sleep and food and write the whole thing at once. Which is why this is the longest one I've ever written.

That was wonderful, much more together than stuff I write, my best stuff has a broken feel to it. And whether or not it disturbed the teacher, it DID stick to the assignment. I think every english teacher I've had would have enjoyed that story alot.

My son's teacher loved his story...he got 100% on it. But I can think of teachers he has had in the past (one in particular) that wouldn't have liked it.
Just out of curiostiy, what does GCSE stand for?

Didn't know, so I looked it up- General Certificate of Secondary Education.

That was awesome, but out of curiosity, Annabelle was knocked out, right? What happened to her?

Weeell.. I didn't really want to go into technical details of how she caused the explosion because anything I could describe would probably not quite match the uncomfortable feeling of not quite knowing what she'd done, but I think it's safe to assume Annabelle didn't fare too well.

I sort of thought so. Just checking.

There is no more unfortunately, since the only time I could get myself to complete anything was when I was doing it for school or something similar, and I no longer go. I did write a lot of things with May in them, but they were all lost in school books and stuff. Funny how all my written work got lost but I still have everything I did in digital form.

It WAS a good story.... I wrote a half decent one last year. But yours outdoes it. By alot. It's sad that you lost all your old stories.

Heh, thanks =>.<= In some ways I don't mind about losing stories and things, they were all fun to write at the time and I think with a lot of them if I were to re-read them I wouldn’t be happy with them. I know I’m not with my poems. Actually, once I spent a day at a beach, writing poems on pebbles. And then chucking the pebble as far as I could. (It was one of those rocky beaches where getting to the sea requires a lot of effort and having dry clothes handy) I was on a creative writing course and even the instructor was horrified that I wasn’t keeping any of them. I’m not sure how to describe the feeling of doing that, but it was a good one.

Oh wow. I know I've drawn stuff then trahsed it, erased it, or burnt it before... So I guess I can see where you are coming from. Though I can't get rid of stuff I have put alot of effort into. I like to collect it, and see how much I've grown. So I can reassure myself that I am getting better.

I actually think that's why she can do things like that. She doesn't need reassurance that she's getting better.

That's awesome! I can imagine the teacher's surprise, lol! I like the characters. Very real, and you get the feel of them despite the shortness of the story.
You know, I've never seen curb spelled kerb before! Are you British? >shrug<

I wrote my first ever actual short story! Whoo! People tell me that it's good, and I like to believe them.

That was awesome. I feel like May, although I wouldn't blow up my school O.O
