Anyway, it's an idea I am playing with. Reality breeds fiction.
In some books, if a scene is difficult, I have actually played it out and gotten the feelings and problems. With the book I am into now...wow...50 Shades of Grey indeed. "Tie me up and let's get kinky" (oh for the book..not for me....**embarrassed laugh***) I have found some of the scenes difficult if not acted out...I mean don't we need to be tied up and spanked and tortured with nipple clams to really get the ability to describe it? And my husband, supportive man he is (for surely it isn't for HIMSELF) offers to help with the scenes. Isn't that sweet? (LOL)
That is what is in my head right now... how a writer's world and reality can converge in ways unexpected. Writers may be the kinkiest people ever.,.(except those who just describe and never partake which is boring). I think our reality blurs with fiction. Writers dare to imagine it...and I think some of us dare to indulge. It's all about testing boundaries, as my agent says.
Which is an off topic..but I now have an agent and a professional copy editor working for me. While it should be easier (oh and a web designer) to have people working for me, it seems to get bigger every day. Writers who write a little and enjoy that part need to appreciate that time to be himself and be a little fish. As my aquariam grows and i grow as a fish, things do get more involved.
See? This is how reality and what was simple and a dream merges. Would I go back to that innocence of being a no body writer and not testing boundaries? Nope. My experimentation and growth allow me to entertain with more boundaries crossed, more sharp edges, stronger reality, and isn't that what I am supposed to do? Entertain? ALl the world's a stage, you know...but who else gets to LIVE fiction and make it real? Yep, I love being a writer. And by far....the more psychotic the better....life is an experiment and I can see blowing up the lab!
Cheers!
