statement of intent after feedback

  The title of my magazine is called 'Expose’. The main point of the story consists of the the donor who is a British actor who helps a working-class girl improve her life since she is suffering from her illness and also she is the heroine (Propp) of the story. The point of the magazine is to help people improve their lifestyle and influence the people of todays society. The magazine is taking during the heroines illness, so the magazine is featuring gossips about the current situation maybe in order to help the girl or to attract awareness, because of that the magazine is now very popular in the film industry.

Preliminary exercise learner response

1) Type up your teacher's feedback  in full . If you've received your feedback via email, you can simply cut and paste it from the email into your blog. WWW Your alliterative masthead works in emphasising the overall tone of the magazine as one of realism and seriousness. The cover lines that you have written seem to be consistent with the gossip and celebrity news direction that you have taken with the bottom line of your cover.
