Well, let's just see how it goes, it's a little too early to tell but as Adam would say, "Be brutally honest, it's good for us all."

Hey is anyone else going to post an assignment so that I have something else to work on? Help a girl out would you?

You're evil Adam, but that's okay - on this I completely understand. I'm the wrong person to ask about the elements of style - definately don't buy it off the net - no reason to pay shipping when they're a dime a dozen. I have all sorts of reference books and figure it never hurts to have them on hand - but that's just me. If you can be patient - I'll find one & send it. There's bound to be one at the next book sale I go to. I may even have an extra copy somewhere.

Should I really bother buying an Elements of Style (Strunk and White) off of the web? And I just tinkered again: first paragraph. Sorry, squirrel girl.

Caroline, loved your setting with the girl in the boat. It was beautiful. She was beautiful. I was confused in the beginning when you said she was asleep in the hull. For some reason I imagined her at sea on a yacht. Why is she crying at the end? She seems so strong alone in her little beat-up rowboat letting the current take her where it will. And she works in a factory, factory workers are bad-asses. I imagine this cultured, feminine Rosie the Riveter. Her outfit says she's feminine. She's cultured because she appreciates the finer things in life: floating along in a boat with her best little friend. I imagine this sensual sculptress who swears like a sailor but isn't one of these wishy-washy stream of consciousness types. She follows the rules of art and style.
The carnival was a nice touch too.
I think that all makes sense.
