Gothic style is still popular in the contemporary times because of its nature. Gothic readers would enjoy the emotions they would feel, the looming darkness and danger every scene has to offer. According to the author, it would engage the reader with its own mind and the lure of the temptations of the soul.
Gothic style has influenced the modern days in terms of fashion, literature, theater, arts and cinema.
Hope this helps.
Together we promise to share our lives, fortune, and sacred honor!
According to King, <u>many writing teachers</u> will not like the idea that competent writers can be made into good writers.
This is his exact quote:
"...while it is impossible to make a competent writer out of a bad writer, and while it is equally impossible to make a great writer out of a good one, it <span>is </span><span>possible, with lots of hard work, dedication, and timely help, to make a good writer out of a merely competent one."
</span>So writers that have some merit will become good writers after a time of practice and hard work.
