hi jasmin

sorry to rain on your parade.

this might be better off in the writing workshop because it is in no way ready for peer review.

however, it does show potential so dont give up.

at the moment the text needs spell checking, there are only a few errors but they should be removed, and grammar checking. you have cammas all over the place. they are not like slat, use them sparingly. read it out load and breath everytime you put a comma. if you hyperventilate (caused by too much oxygen and not enough CO2) then you have too many commas.


i also recommend having a really tight structure. opinion/first person entries do make it to the guide but they have to be really tightly written. you need things like date of publication, relavent contemporary texts, contemporary literary fashions etc. so you can better explain why it made such an impression. even though you are focusing on your opinion of the book you do need to have something to run it against. a brief comparision of frankistein etc (famous books and cases of the day) is a usful extra paragraph.

you really need to know exactly where you are going with this. at the moment it's a bit of a jumbled muddle with little structure, but you are clearly passionate about it so dont let my critisism discourage you.


have a poke around the guide at other review for some ideas on structure. dont forget to search as well for things you can link to. for example, are there entries on Vampires etc that you could link to.

good luck, ignore me if you like.

I am a fine one to talk. Now you see why my own output is so limited!

Blues Shark - For people who like this sort of thing, then this is just the sort of thing they'll like

There is a basis for a good entry here, but I think it does need some work.
Also, unless Stoker had access to a time-machine, he couldn't have won the Booker as the first Booker prize was awarded in 1969.smiley - erm
