Thank you. I've finished this story, so im in a really weird mood. I get really emotionally involved in my stories, so I'm a little spent. Does that make sense?
Anywho - thank you for commenting. I'll comment proper when I'm not in a weird mood.
It totally makes sense. Generally, when I've read a series all the way through, start to finish (such as your 100 ways, because it was written before I joined this little shindig), I'm emotionally drained (ok, when its well written, anyway). So I have an inkling of what it must feel like to so emotionally involve yourself in writing it.
In general, I think your readers take the journey with you, if not a little behind you. As I sit here now, emotionally involved in this story, I have hopes for what will happen and fears about what will happen. If that makes any sense...
The best stories I tend to keep saved on a jump drive so I can go back and read through them anytime.
Yeah, the journey is the most important part for me. I want to take people on a story-ride. I want them to feel what the characters feel, and to think about the dynamics of relationships, etc.
Oye...this is intense. I understand how Ryan feels. Cancer is scary from every perspective. I can really relate to this, it's difficult to read at times because its so raw for me, but it makes me feel like I'm not alone when it comes to a loved one facing cancer.
Yeah, I always keep reminding myself that it's ficitional, but it does make you realize that things like this are happening all the time to numerous individuals. I think so many people are effected by cancer in some way, shape or form that everyone can relate to it in a sense, especially the all to common fear that comes with cancer. It's such a scary thing, but I think it's also good to talk about it, or in your case write about it.
it is good to open up dialogue. I also want it to be realistic. Just, if you can, try not to make parallels between my story and cancer in your life. I don't want to cause harm, you know? But write a good story with a good journey.
