updated 01/27/2009 04:10AM
description:
Exam piece, written under timed conditions. The task was to write a story titled "Always Together", and to write about an elderly couple. What resulted is a romantic tale, driven by the clarity of memory and finished with a twist.
Also, as with all exam pieces, the aim is to show a degree of skill with the written word and use as many and varied a lot of literary techniques as you can think of.
1,300 words approx. Not too rough with the critique, please.
