Unfortunately I have made no progress on How We Got Here yet as my last two days at work were busy and stressful and I was too fatigued to write. Today, Day 5, I only managed to make small edits on my already written prologue so the rest of the novel would make sense. I’m going to work on making
Read moreWrite a letter to God** Dear God, Are you out there? Do you really exist? I guess I won’t know until I die. I’ve always held the belief that you exist, or if not you, that a higher power does. I’ve always felt that life is a combination of what I make of it and my destiny being pre-mapped. The

Read moreWrite a letter to yourself, to be read in fifty years** Dear Rachel, So you’re in your seventies now, actually you’re more closer to 80 than 70….76. I hope we’re still alive. How do you feel about being in your seventies? In your life so far, what do you feel your best decade has been? Thirties? Forties? Fifties? Sixties? I’m

Actually I know where it went–school, working at Woolies, moving away and going to uni, and working in Sydney–no wait that’s where I’m up to. Lately I’ve been feeling I haven’t really lived my life. While

The idea had developed, I knew I wanted to begin each chapter with a certain event going on in the girls’ lives, with the first one being Brooke’s wedding. Each word that I tried to write felt forced and contrived and in my
Read moreI decided for NaNoWrimo to write an epistolary novel (diaries, letters) because I have always loved the form. I still love John Marsden’s Letters from the Inside and So Much to Tell You to this day. Cecelia Ahern’s Where Rainbows End is one of my favourite books. I wrote a mini-thesis on James Patterson’s Suzanne’s Diary for Nicholas and Sam’s
Read moreThese are flow charts I drew when I was trying to come with a question/hypothesis for a journalism mini-thesis, in my final year of university study two years ago. I knew I wanted to write about objectivity, but it’s such a broad topic in journalism, I knew I had to find something specific to focus on and after extensive research,

Read moreThis episode for me revolved around the theme of things not appearing as they seem. You could argue this is what the whole show is about as it is a crime/thriller, but with this episode it was more noticeable.
