Closure commentary?

Oct 15, 2008 21:56

I'd like to do a commentary for "Closure," similar to what I did for "Ebbing of the Tide." However, "Closure" is obviously a much longer, much more complex story, and so I'm finding it a little overwhelming to comment on. I could probably go on for hours talking about various aspects of the story and the writing process, but I'm sure no one wants a ( Read more... )

I'm always interested in the writing process of other writers. I'd rather see an overview of/thoughts about the fic than a selected chapter commentary, though.

Thanks for the suggestions. :) I was thinking about maybe explaining the clues and misdirections, but it might be more interesting to go through the suspects from Buffy's perspective.

The misdirections would be good, too. Since you had us all guessing different people all the time.

Another vote for a commentary on everything. :-)

Rather than an in-depth commentary on every chapter, though, perhaps you could do a general overview essay, then a short section on each chapter just highlighting the main design decisions and perhaps picking out a few passages you think are worthy of further comment? (Rather than trying to go into detail on everything).

But if you did go into detail on everything, I'd still read it...

Haha, you might be the only one left standing at the end. Including me.

I think even doing a short section on each chapter will probably end up being pretty long, but we'll see if I can muster up some brevity here. :)

I give another vote for a commentary on everything.

An overview would be great as a start. Then, a chapter outline [especially Buffy's frame of mind - how she made her decisions and how she changed as events unfolded.]

Anything you'd care to write would be great. Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have a feeling this is going to be loooong, lol.

I don't think I should say anything because due to a big overload of work I hardly have any internet time (I haven't read the last two chapters yet and I'm dying to), but write away, I'll read it eventually!
A grammatical question: why "dying" from "die"? Where does the "y" come from?

Work schmerk! Fanfic is way more fun. :) As for the grammatical question, uh, because the English language is stupid?
