Isabelle’s letter feedback
In prep for c/wk
• Spell every character’s name accurately
• Do not use exclamation marks and be careful
with rhetorical questions. Does Faulks use
these?
• sp – as it’s c/wk, there shouldn’t be a single
spelling error (be careful with Americanisms –
‘honor’)
• exp – expression
• h/p – homophone
• No abbreviations
• No colloquialisms
• No modern expressions
