And yes, third person narrative is a bit spooky - usually written by writers with a third hand.<BR/><BR/>Jan, as a creative writing tutor, you know the value of sharing your work with others. I have suffered (in more ways than one) at the hands of my fellow classmates, but it only serves to make you examine your own writing, adjust and hopefully progress.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03665385782194826703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24425707.post-72616880978079019482007-05-07T09:45:00.000+01:002007-05-07T09:45:00.000+01:00AS far as I know CS, there are are few things you ...AS far as I know CS, there are are few things you can do to protect your work.
