Blog Entry 14 concerns for my essay
I have spent quiet amount of time for my essay. However, there are few things that I still need to work on. I am using psychoanalitic literary criticisim to interpret the story I chose. But I am not sure if I am understanding the psychological concepts correctly such as Frued's theory of ID, EGO, and Superego in connection to the narrator's personality. I also wrote about symbols but I am not sure if they are relevant to psychoanalitic critisim. Lastly I think I need to write a conclusion that would tide up ideas and summarize how the psychoanalitic literary criticism helped anaylizing the story and the narrator.

I think it is looking good. You essentially have two major sections: 1) summary, 2) Interpretation. This format works fine, but you could actually work them together so that you summarize and interpret as you go along. That is not necessary, however, though it might lead you more to the "So what". Either way, you are right, you will need more on "what it all means". What does the story tell us about life, society, our fears, or whatever you think a psychoanalyst would say.
