Frankenstein

I'm so bad not writing my blog for a week and a half.  I was too busy with family life, celebrating Easter, enjoying the sunshine - oooh procrastination!  Now I'm doing it but worrying about not getting on with my 2nd book - where will it end?  I do admire all you clever writers doing your A - Z challenge - what a witty lot you are finding something interesting to write all the time. 
During the holidays I went to see Frankenstein at the National Theatre in London, it was a truly amazing experience - two hours on the edge of my seat jaw dropped open (very attractive)  The production was stripped right back to be faithful to the original book.  It was tragic, captivating and full of social comment regarding man's inhumanity to man; still so relevant today.  What an achievement, to be able to write such a brilliant novel that over 200 years later is still being read and adapted for stage and screen.   How wonderful to make that much of an impression with your writing that it lives on long after you do.  Now that's a good reason to write!
