I’m reminded of my previous comment back on an unrelated subreddit talking about the Eye of Argon. Obviously that wasn’t as structural insane as My Immortal but I think the same principle holds to a degree:
“With a decent editor and several further drafts it could have been a solid, fun, entirely forgettable Conan pastiche. Instead, it’s the Eye of Argon.”
