Such a sad and tragic ending. The creature visits Victor and self-proclaims guilt in the death of his creator. He rightly acknowledges that killing all that was dear to Victor was the eventual cause of death. Yet he says all of Victor's agony still didn't equal his own, and Victor's hate for him couldn't possibly measure his own self-hate. The most valuable lessons from this ground-breaking novel are in its themes: Man playing God ... Dangerous Knowledge ... Lost Innocence ... Human Nature. Quite an accomplishment from an 18-year-old girl who wrote it on a dare. Thanks for publishing it, Paul.
I taught with passion, and I believe it made a difference. I still have about a dozen ex-students who are friends on Facebook, most from 15 years ago. How cool is that?
That's wild, Jim. I don't even remember one of my teacher's names anymore. (That' more 'on me' than them, though). But never had a personal connection with them...
I haven’t read your Frankenstein Paul but I want to offer my congratulations for undertaking such a huge project! Well done!
It's fun for me, thanks!

Thanks for your comment. You've managed to condense 8000 words down to less than 100! Wish I had a teacher like you back then.

Hey, Paul. Just sent you an email. Can you re-send me the link for tomorrow's writers' forum? Thanks.
Thank you, Mitch!
