Oh writing, my life... my air...
The past few days have just been awful for me. The weather sucks and overcast skies always depress me. But tonight I took to my laptop, turned my music on and started typing. I felt alive again after days of feeling miserable. I think it's interesting how my characters make me grow to love them. For example, the heroine of my current story used to really annoy me, she was merely a means to an end, but the more I put myself into her world to tell her story, the more in love with her I have fallen. I understand her so deeply now because we share much of the same pain, even though our life events are much different. But through my pain I write her and get to know her better. She makes plenty of mistakes but she is so human and my heart just breaks for her... for what I put her through. But hey, I always torture the characters I love the most.
writing,
