Supernatural Elements in my Re_Write
Thinking of the title the song that came straight to mind was "Voodoo Woman" song by the Neville Brothers, especially after reading about Christophine and reading the critical analysis in our Critical Reader for this paper. Here are the lyrics to that song (this process is helping me to brainstorm my Re-write).

Voodoo Lyrics
The Neville Brothers
Oh you must a put Voodoo on me - Oh you must a cast a spell
The way I’m loving you girl – Ain’t no tongue can tell
Oh you must a been burning candles – Oh to make a love so strong
You must a sprinkled dust all around my bed – You must a had a
black cat bone
Just at a glance – You know you put me in a trance
Oh when I look into your eyes – Girl you have me hypnotized
Oh you must a put Voodoo on me - Oh you must a cast a spell
The way you got me loving you girl – Ain’t no tongue can tell
Solo 8 bars
Solo 8 bars
Oh, if I call on Magnolia could she break this spell on me
Father Black Hawk or Mother Dora - I wonder could they set me free
Oh you must a put Voodoo on me - Oh you must a cast a spell
The way you got me loving you girl – Ain’t no tongue can tell
Voodoo woman –Voodoo woman
Voodoo woman –Voodoo woman
Solo 4 bars - end

Ideas for Brief One
After reading the 2010 Re-write examples. I think I'm interested in possibly infusing these genre's & stories into my work.
- Choose a mythology Asia/Polynesian(maybe several)
- A Martial Arts film "Crouching Tiger"
- Movie "Queen" Starring Haylee Berry

Blogging
Hi to all the New Literatures students for 2011!
It's a great idea to add your ideas for the REWRITE assessment to the Blog as you develop them - you could get useful feedback from both lecturers and fellow students.
You may have several ideas to begin with - put them all up and see what everyone thinks!
I'm sure no-one will steal your ideas :)
You can brainstorm on the blog too, or post possible REWRITE plans/ outlines.
Also, add your drafts as you go. The lecturers will not assume these are your final copies, and other blog members can comment on your work.
GOOD LUCK!!
