h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Is that mocks or are you doing it early?

I'm in year 10 and i am doing the modular course so i have one now, one in march (i think) and then one in year 11.

Wasn't modular in my day *grumble grumble*. I don't think so anyway. We did do module exams but I don't think they counted towards the GCSE.

It was really easy, fill in the right dots on the page and that was it!

Ah yes, with the regulation pencil. I remember that. Glad it went well!

It actually has to be a black ballpoint pen otherwise the scanner won't read it properly. silly machine!

Thanks. Am doing more on my entry now!

Oh yes. It was something else that used a pencil. You always think that multiple choice makes it easier, but the problem comes when you're not certain, because there are inevitably at least two answers that sound plausible.

But then you have a 1/4 chance of getting it right!

What else do i need to do on the entry, (bar sorting out my abysmal spelling!)?

You have a section with the sub-heading 'The Characters', but you only list Captain Holly Short, and say nothing more about that character other than that she is a female. Has something been deleted here? Are there no other characters? I'm sure there are.

<> Since you give the dates 1992 to 1996, you don't need to put as well. You could simply put: <>

Yes Pingu, you do need to fix some spellings. I would also suggest that you re-read your entry slowly and carefully. You should find quite a lot of things that you could correct.

This is not at all bad for a first entry A little attention to detail and it will be fine. I look forward to reading it again when you've had a chance to fix it.

Ah I knew there was more to do!

The characters section I started on and then didin't quite finish!

How's it going Pingu?
Nother

getting there slowly (very slowly)

i'm continuing it offline up in my room rather than downstairs where i can't get on the computer to finish it. so i should be moving a bit quicker!

updates when i have more to add!

Excellent! Thanks for keeping us updated

right ing upstairs to do some more!

right i've done a little bit more on it. it has been spellchecked but it won't be perfect!

Right. First of all, it wouldn't hurt to give us a bit of background - when you talk about the characters in Artemis Fowl, you never mention anything about them being fairies, or explain the complex world Eoin created for them.

Second thing, you need a header separating the books from the characters.

Third thing, you need to tell me how to pronounce his name.

But good choice for a first entry!

there's a footnote telling peole how to pronounce his name.

i shall add other points soon.

You're fond of these peole, aren't you, Pingu? I'm sure we had some in your journal earlier.

TRiG.

Captain Holly short is one of the only females in the LEP.
"One of the only"? Try "one of the few", perhaps.
And a footnote explaining the LEP: Lower Elements Police.

Also, Benny's sport of choice was hurling, not curling.
