You've grown so much as a writer, and I can't wait to see what challenge you take on next! :)Kaitlin Bartletthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12396607556882297132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2650714799842481877.post-72101504151669524052012-08-12T08:41:54.867-04:002012-08-12T08:41:54.867-04:00I was just thinking about this the other day as I ...I was just thinking about this the other day as I was editing. For me, it's been a steady progression - each manuscript ventures further outside my comfort zone. If someone had told me a few years ago that one day I'd write a book like MTL, I'd have laughed. A lot. But now that I DID write it? I can't imagine not having it in my life, and I also can't imagine deliberately keeping myself in the realm of "the known," either. Sometimes it seems like only yesterday that I was telling you how nervous I was about writing Sofie since her situation was so foreign to me - but like you said, as long as we find something to connect with our characters about, that's all we need. They take over from there. So, my long-winded answer to your question - it's definitely somewhere in the middle for me :)Sharihttp://workofheart09.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
