 asdfjkl; 2008-03-27 . chapter 1 i have just read all of your stories (well, the lotr/sillmarillion ones that is) and i love them, especially your oneshots. you are really good at grasping emotions and not only writing about them, but evoking them in your reader. several of your posts made me cry!
however, what makes your oneshots so touching somewhat hinders your multi-chapter stories. you have a tendency to get caught up in the emotion of a moment which can slow your plot down. and as captivating as those plots are, you have a tendency to jump around through time. instead of linking things together, you all to often jump straight into your next big scene which is off-putting. i kept losing a sense of how everything fit together.
so yeah. i know its been a long while, but keep writing! |
