I would guess the main reasoning behind enforcing strict grammar would be clarity and good-habit building, two things I am morally opposed to.
Unfortunately I'm too green to really cite any noteworthy examples for either case, I've not given you much to go on, but I wait hungrily for any rant you may want to throw this way.
Quote:A question for you, Mr Dale, I am seeing a lot of people suggest that directly telling a story can be counter-productive and may make the story appear bland.
I then notice you begin to correct tenses and switch around some of this poem to put it in a more linear narrative style?
Do you think perhaps there could be merit in using broken tenses and lines to represent the immediacy or intensity of certain aspects of a story? Or does it lead to a more cliched and ineffectual method?
I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on the matter as my own are quite isolated and strange
- As an inexperienced novice I haven't formed any strong opinions either way.
- I would love to hear the thoughts and opinions other people have on the matter.
- Some people certainly seem to have very strong opinions on the subject and I'd love to hear about the reasoning or breeding behind them.
