Your analysis should consider what form and generic characteristics you have used in your writing and how they link to the literary concepts studied throughout the unit (with particular attention to the Short-Fiction Module in weeks 3-5).Aims/ObjectivesIn the applied project you will show your understanding of literary concepts by producing a creative piece of writing. Your work will be based on your interpretation of a particular narrative form and genre.The applied project also asks that you analyse your creative writing in a scholarly way. This means you will analytically explain the different aspects of narrative form and the generic conventions you have considered and eventually used in your creative writing piece.DetailsLength: 1000 words (500 for each part) 1,000 all together. Assessment RequirementsIn Part One of the assessment, you will produce a creative piece of writing (500 words) that focuses on one or more features of short-fiction such as character, point of view, setting or plot.

Consider if your writing contains repetition or unnecessary phrases and sentences. The short story form is very disciplined and considered – your writing will need to be also.Differentiate between tone and language: In Part One you need to create your own narrative voice because you are creating a personal and creative piece of writing.

used the system for nearly four months. Overall, New Century is pleased with the improvements
in efficiency, office productivity, and patient satisfaction.
Some problems have surfaced, however. The office staff members call you almost daily to request
assistance and suggest changes in certain reports and forms. You try to be helpful, but now
you are busy with other clients. Actually, your contract with New Century required you to provide
support only during the first three months of operation, but you want to encourage them to begin
working on Phase Two of the computer upgrade project. Anita Davenport, New Centurys office
manager, reported that the system seems to slow down at certain times during the day, making it
difficult for the staff to keep up with its workload. Also, you are increasingly are concerned about
system security. A recent article in the local newspaper described an incident where a disgruntled
former employee was planning to break into a computer system and destroy or alter data.
