Super engaging!!!! I loved the anecdote so much!! I've never read Jane Eyre myself, but your writing has convinced me - but I entirely relate to seeing myself in a character. One suggestion is that if you do a reflection, you could mention Mod A and how some texts are like a blueprint, and after that, authors add their own annotations and stuff. Like a metaphor running through, I suggest the metaphor of a palimpsest. I especially liked the book being stained and stuff and taking it everywhere that will def make the English markers blush. Also idk maybe talking about the gift of the author to be clairvoyant and she kind of prophesied you, connections between the author and responder across time. But overall, great read you will definitely slay the trials/hsc but just remember to engage with the stimulus like it's the most valuable thing in the world.
