On one of my OU courses, where we were supposed to be doing a freewriting exercise, I got marked down for being too 'polished' :)<br /><br />CxCathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14103529618681254875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35619589.post-69544809132789120592009-06-19T10:24:24.108+01:002009-06-19T10:24:24.108+01:00Thanks B and Helen.

The one I'm finishing now went much faster, with bigger chinks being written before editing. But I still write by hand, and still polish a bit as I go along. I guess, whatever works, right?Sue Guineyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13556228394020314560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35619589.post-81557790049139729932009-06-19T10:14:47.952+01:002009-06-19T10:14:47.952+01:00Cathy,I write really slowly too.

And your list of authors is something like the list I'd come up with too!<br /><br />Anyway, my mentor keeps saying while I'm writing not to worry about any of this... so I'm trying very hard not to worry.Jenny Beattiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00640209636605410939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35619589.post-57744673893106904992009-06-18T22:10:43.063+01:002009-06-18T22:10:43.063+01:00That's an amazing achievement.
