Writing Critique #3

Nick did a really good job of addressing the specific events in which haunted Elizabeth and her view of Mr. Darcy. Even if someone had not known the background of Elizabeth and Darcy's relationship, by reading Nick's letter, they would be able to tell why she declined the proposal. This reader would also see that Elizabeth was a prejudice character, but one who has realized that as the novel went on. I really liked this specific format, addressing each necessary thing paragraph at a time. Nick did not put too much emphasis on using the language of the time, but I think his overall writing and expression of his ideas made up for it. He had a unique ending, one that caught me off guard. He uses our knowledge of Elizabeth's independent and strong character and makes it so that she sticks up for herself, rather than giving into Mr. Darcy right away. Not only does he do this, but he enters a sense of foreshadowing in at the very end, expressing that he believes Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy might be able to overcome this and remain close. I liked this blog a lot, good job Nick :)
