 Leighgion 9/5/04 . chapter 2Your basic concept is interesting, though you lay on the exposition a little thick and the expositing starts to run against the current the actual action is generating, especially towards the end. Your rendition of Poison Ivy has some real life to it, but while you say she's not insane, but just evil, to me she comes off as quite delightfully deranged rather than "evil." Ivy's the strongest character so far, which is a bit of a problem in that she's leaving the protanist in the dust. If you want the reader the run with Helena, she's going to need to some help. So far, I find myself most interested in how Ivy might have been involved in Selina's death and why rather than in Helena's potential revenge. Keep trying though, you've got seeds there to water! |
