What will three gold quills buy you?

Fairy tales and hard work

A few beans are all it takes, small beginnings which look insignificant. That, and the determination to climb high, repeatedly.

And the reward? Gold, success and life happy ever after (aided by golden eggs, a magical golden harp – and taking heed of your parent(s)).

Remember the story of Jack and the Beanstalk? Well now you too can gain some virtual gold.

The rewards of studying

Within the next month Crossref-it.info is introducing an element of fun, competition and self-congratulation into studying English Lit. as well as helping you academically.

For every insignificant ‘bean’ of a text revision question answered correctly, there is a quill. For every chapter / scene/ poem you read there are more. By the time you’ve done that, you will already have earnt a handful of bronze quills.

Undertake the investigative crossref-it text guide questions and you will rack up some silver quills. Complete the lot and you will probably have already made it to gold.

Yes folks, that hen is within your grasp!

Keep going


Unfortunately, Jack didn’t get everything on his first climb. He had to keep pushing himself if he wanted greater rewards. So there will be another level - some revision essay plans which will help you pull your knowledge together ready for the unmentionables at the end of the year.

More gold quills will be within your grasp – and what will that gain you (well, apart from being fantastically helpful in succeeding academically)?

Watch this space…
