Not only is it away of facing fears, I use writing to say everything I ever wanted to say and never will. It's cathartic in it's own way. Sort of like an unsent letter in story form. Though it doesn't always make for great stories, lol. But facing fears, I think they do.<br /><br />The biggest fears I have revolve around my children: their death, my death, or their abduction. I've tried putting the loss of a child on paper, but walked away sobbing. I'll try again, one day. :)<br /><br /> Nice post!Crystal Poseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09939745305440912406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23749528.post-77003816082472503562010-03-11T15:52:56.610-07:002010-03-11T15:52:56.610-07:00It took me a long time to get to the place where I...It took me a long time to get to the place where I realized I wasn't putting my characters through enough. I think I was afraid to put them into situations I didn't know how I would resolve. But when I did it, it was ... freeing. And my character rose to the occasion!Portiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13435815819572442582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23749528.post-14310115808887786142010-03-11T15:07:29.126-07:002010-03-11T15:07:29.126-07:00I kind of enjoy putting my characters through hell...I kind of enjoy putting my characters through hell. Of course, my hell is maybe a little more comical than your hell, so I'm not a total sadist. ;)Linda G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04576828490765434497noreply@blogger.com
