Oh did you have my full attention or WHAT!<BR/><BR/>You asked me awhile ago about horror- and the things that scare people. What I've learned is the world is full of dark corners and what scares ME is hearing about those corners.<BR/><BR/>There is no grand design for horror. Like you can go Stephen King or Anne Rice and fly over the top...but to me you don't need to write that way to scare people or make them think.<BR/><BR/>Do you know what? I think the thing that scares people the MOST is when you mess with their reality.<BR/><BR/>The guy that stood in front of you at the supermarket? The neighbor you chat with when you get the mail? I'd find a way to put them in a story and just tweak that reality...just a tad and I promise you, instant chills.<BR/><BR/>The thing with horror is if you don't present it to your reader in a reality they understand it won't do anything at all. Now find a way to get them through that door and make them feel safe and sound? Oh baby, you got 'em then!<BR/><BR/>So you know your world and what makes you feel safe...and you know better then anybody how to play with that...have fun Lois...I know I do!<BR/><BR/>Anita MarieAnita Marie Moscosohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02447868617517154334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11324236.post-1137785766953652982006-01-20T11:36:00.000-08:002006-01-20T11:36:00.000-08:00Poor Jessie dog has been doing it tough since her ...Poor Jessie dog has been doing it tough since her hearing went. You are gentle with her Lois and she always looks out for you. <BR/><BR/>On New Years Eve I had a similar experience with Greg's dog Vada. I was minding her and the fire crackers bought on a massive panic attack. She was not so lucky. I had to put her in our bathroom, which is small and dark and sound proof, with some water.Heather Blakeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16569556563400820006noreply@blogger.com
