While reading Supernatural:
A Teton Ghost Story by Katharine Berry Judson I picked up on somethings
that I liked and didn’t like for when I write my own story.
Some of the things I liked consisted of:
·
The setting of the story. The author did a good
job portraying a scene that was haunting and eerie. The setting was fitting to
the genera of the story, supernatural.
·
The point of view allowed the reader to follow
the story easily and always know who was talking.
·
The starting of the story did a good job
introducing the scene but also avoided having too much fluff and got straight
to the point.
·
I would like for there to be dialogue in my story
because I feel as though it adds to the story and makes the reader more
interested.
·
I loved the descriptive sentences. I want to be
able to draw a picture for the reader with my sentences by using descriptive
words and paying attention to detail just like this author did.
·
I want to incorporate what this story did by
allowing the reader to know what kind of personality the main character has.
This author shows you that the main character is nervous and scared by
describing how he hid under his blanket and cut a small peep hole to look out
of.
Some of the things I didn’t like consisted of:
·
Not giving the main character a name. I feel
like when you give a character a name you are able to relate more with them.
·
The ending of the story ends abruptly. I also
think the ending needs to do a better job of concluding the entire story.
·
With this being a supernatural story, I wish there
would’ve been more action in the plot of the story.
