  1. Hey Augusta

     

    Ambiguity and its forms are my worst and most frequent error. I add clauses that I later feel are completely useless. However rephrasing took so long while I was editing I drove myself away from my novel and started to 'hate' it.

    Could you post on the comma to semi-colon comment. This is no excuse but i'm only 17 with my mind overflowing with exams this and uni-scholarship essay that and I don't have the experience of knowing where they exactly go.

    Thanks for reading, I have attempted to fix the mistakes you pointed out.

    As for more sections, i'm not sure, maybe I'll blog the section before or after this bit? I'd love to read some of your work, please post.

    The accent stays - I like it btw.

  2. A bit of background, my lead has escaped his room on the day of a fictitious (I Think) festival (In March - if anyone knows the real name of a festival sometime in march that has something to do with the god Mars I would be very grateful.)

    "Vibius yer turned up, I thought yer weren't goin' to come? 'Ave a free drink lad." Said the friendly tavern keeper handing Vibius a drink with a gnarled hand.

     

    I think your friendly tavern keeper sounds like a pirate. Arrrr. :)

    He does have a bit of pirate in him i suppose, thanks for the link and reading my extract :D

  3. Because I am at school the book is consequently really difficult. I also have a really busy life so only have an hour a week to actually do Roman stuff and a good 10-40 mins of that is spent on here learning.

     

    I've been at my book now for nearly a year and the past few months i've only wrote 10 or so pages. It's semi-writers block i suppose.

  4. Habana may be quick but what about strength to, you want Josh Lewsey, or sheer barbarian power in Dallaglio. I am patriotic beyond belief but feel we are going to have one monumental struggle ahead of us. Bring back Dawson!! well if we don't win i think the kiwi's will then the springboks then the welsh maybe.
