Nancy - it's an allusion to the cathartic effect that’s intrinsic to self disclosure, even when that disclosure happens in the context of one’s fiction.
Robyn - one of the characters is experiencing a long series of life experiences from my life that I didn't enjoy. Each time he does, somehow I become just a notch more detached from the actual experiences.
Ah, thank you for making me smile! I'm trying to untangle the twists and turns in my own wip....and, though I'm sincerely sorry anyone else is feeling it, it's nice to know I'm not alone.
I'm having to go places I haven't been in ages, and I'm wrung out, emotionally and physically. I suppose all we can do is hang on for the ride....
hear you man...

ReplyDeleteThanks, Chary. I'll need it :)

Words Crafter - our writing's at its best when it's honest, it's at it's most honest when it's about ourselves. Enjoy the catharsis.
ReplyDeleteIt is half the fun, Libby. It truly is.
ReplyDeleteGood luck, Mohamed. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kate. It appears I'll need it :)
