 GeekRyuu 6/2/02 . chapter 1Very nice! I like the shifting, poetical language you've written this in. It helps to drive home the conflicting emotions that Harry has about his father and how he wavers between needing Norman's affection and approval, but also hates the man with a deep intensity. It's in-character and beautifully expressed without being bogged down by unneccessary exposition or false sentimentality. It almost reads like really good slam poetry, actually. Basically, this is astoundingly good and I will be keeping an eye out for more of your work in the future. You've got some serious potential! |
