Re: Rating Worksheet (as used by the judges)

Hey Deb,

I would like a ratings sheet. I don't know what excel is. I have Microsoft word. I can also download open office if I need to. MY email address is [email protected]

Thanks,

Re: Second Tense

Hi Jan, I apologize for that. I meant to say second person. I am wondering if a person could use it in a devotional style writing would it sound awkward?

Second Tense (Writing in Second Person)

Dear Jan, Is it acceptable to write a piece in second tense for the writing competition? I have had difficulties with tenses in the past and wanted to know if you had a lesson on tenses or could possibly a link where I could brush up on my tenses?

Thanks,
Richard

Re: Tenses all over the place ---Help---

I am sorry my mind was not thinking right. Maybe after the challenge is over I can post my piece and you can offer me some red ink or even during the brick throwing? Whew, are you sure this post thread is okay?
