A Professional Opinion
A few
weeks ago I decided to contact the Teaching Assistant who deals with a lot of
the Gothic Horror aspects of the English Studies course at
Stirling University (where I once studied sport- No I'm not joking. I
studied sport there. Honestly I did. How'd I go from sport to this? Well it's a
long story that is explained at the very start of this blog, I think).
Anyway... I contacted Matthew Foley asking if he'd take a look at
my Frankenstein story. He was very nice and took the time to look at
it. This is is what he said...
'I think that you write well -- i'm very fussy about style
normally! -- and also that the rewriting of Victor as having created the bride
of Frankenstein is a super idea that you handle intelligently. You also set up
a convincing premise to the action. The nods to Walton will keep the fanboys
happy, too. All in all, style and premise are great.'
He also pointed out one or two technical issues, like
sentence structure, and also gave a suggestion to make it a full Novel, which
is funny as that was the original plan. I'm thankful for the time Matt took and
that he had such positive things to say.
There's a lot of other things in the pipeline and plenty of
updates to come. I will also have another review of someone else's work I've
been reading and I will post that soon.
