-Feedback-
Note: The purpose of the following observations, corrections, and suggestions is to help the Author and attempt to point out the strengths and weaknesses of the piece. It is not my intention to belittle or discourage the Author who was good enough to let me read it.
The following editing corrections will be in parenthesis ( ).
Editing Notes: Lieutenant Rogers, or Colonel Rogers to be exact closed to (to=remove) the leather bound book and put it in the inside of his uniform.
Layout: paragraph & dialogue are separated nicely.
Plot: Katherine Elise Battles called from a Japanese internment camp, trained by her stepfather to be must learn what and who she is during World War II.
Point of View: 1st person
Protagonist: Katherine, 2nd Lt. Charles Rogers
Antagonist: Vampire Guards at the internment camp
Concept: This is a “Tales of the Slayer” story of Katherine Elise Battles set at an internment camp for Japanese Americans during World War II.
Fight scenes: told not shown Note: this is the focus of your story, a little tip- Try, closing your eyes and picture Katherine taking out the Vampires, play the entire fight scene in your mind; before putting it to paper.
Clarity: This story is very clear how it played out; you even had me fooled when finding out that he was just reading from his journal.
Structure: Well put together
Imagery: good
Description: minimal- this is a character or characters that you have created not ones that we see on the show. You need more description.
Flow: smooth, even
Scene: The scenes were seamless in transition.
Setting: A Japanese internment camp during World War II
Senses: sight, sound, feel,
Dialogue: Lieutenant Rogers needs just a few British dialogue indicators.
Character Development: I love this American/ Japanese character that you have created; sadly it was a short story I would love to see more of her career.
Emotion: sadness, mourning, grief, worry, fear, apprehension,
Overall Feeling: I loved the plot & concept and the creation of a new slayer.
Suggestions: Draw the fight scenes out more and unlike other fanfic’s a “Tales of the Slayer” story is all your creation so, it requires much more in the way of description.
Keep on Writing!
