No no, limit speech. All you have to do is describe the disagreement. I wrote about why they are disagreeing and it then turned violent and abusive which ended in death using a lot of description of course.

if someone were to have copied a lot of the extract and included that in the descriptive writing, what would happen?

Anyone know what chapter extract was taken from?

In the creative writing i couldn’t think of anything to do for disagreement so I did the descriptive writing but I started describing the desert but then I wrote about how these 2 hunters shot an elephant. The problem is I used dialogue, and things happen in order. I realise now that i completely misunderstood the description question. How cooked am I? how many marks am I limited to if I include dialogue and chronological story in the description question?
