So, I’m a member of a website called Writers Cafe, where I occasionally submit stories and people can leave reviews.
One story I posted a while ago is called Time And Tide. You can read it here.
I finally got a review of it today. It mentions that the story is obviously influenced by Minority Report, says I should remove the reference to MR, remove the word precog and lessen the likenesses between the two.
Except I’ve never seen the film MR, never read the book (never read and Phillip K Dick at all, which I’ll have to rectify at some time) and only know that MR uses precogs because of the publicity for the film.
So, the question is, what do I do? Do I let the person know this, get hold of the book/film and watch/read so I know what to change, ignore what was said or what?
Any advice welcome.
Will
P.S. you only have 4 more entries (including this one) to get your questions in for the 1400th entry.
