Daffodil and the Thin Place 300dpiThis week Chris asked us about writing emotions. Here’s her question:

How do you write a difficult emotion? Why is that emotion difficult for you?

Here’s my reply:

The emotion I dislike writing about most, is grief. Getting inside the head of a character is the only way I know of conveying emotions when I’m writing. But I find it upsetting to try to get into the mindset of a character who is experiencing tragedy.

Mostly, what I write is upbeat and my current work in progress is a light-hearted and absurd story about garden gnomes and elves where there are a range of emotions but so far, no grief.

If you’d like to see part of the story about the garden gnomes and elves, click here to go to one of the stories, ‘The Sweet Smell of Success’. Another book that definitely doesn’t have any grief is ‘Daffodil and the Thin Place’ which you can purchase here on the Muse It Up Publishing website or from your favourite ebook retailer.
